PRODUCT INFORMATION:
DESCRIPTION:
A balanced combination of well-known ingredients i.e. Ferric Ammonium Citrate which is a complex salt of Iron, Ammonia and Citric acid and is one of the best-tolerated iron supplements; Vitamin B12 and Vitamin B6 that have an important role in production of RBC's and the important hematinic factors Folic Acid and Zinc that are vital for DNA synthesis.
MECHANISM OF ACTION:
Ferric Ammonium Citrate provides an optimum tolerance of the iron preparation, which is of utmost importance in maintaining long term patient compliance to any hematinic therapy. It rapidly supplements elemental iron so that iron deficiency is quickly controlled, thus leading to faster correction of anemia and replenishment of tissue iron stores. Folic Acid itself is biochemically inactive, is converted to tetrahydrofolic acid and methyltetrahydrofolate by dihydrofolate reductase in liver.
INDICATIONS:
Iron deficiency anemia, pregnancy anemia, lactation, loss of appetite, general weakness and convalescence.
