How it works

Ferium XT Tablet 15's combines two essential nutrients that work together to effectively treat and prevent anaemia caused by iron and folate deficiencies. Ferrous Ascorbate provides a bioavailable form of iron, which is crucial for haemoglobin production and oxygen transport in the blood. The presence of Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) further enhances iron absorption, ensuring optimal levels of this vital mineral. Folic Acid supports DNA synthesis and the production of red blood cells, helping stimulate healthy cell growth and maturation. This combination improves blood health by treating both iron deficiency anaemia and folate deficiency anaemia. It also prevents megaloblastic anaemia and plays a critical role during pregnancy by reducing the risk of neural tube defects, ensuring better health outcomes for both mother and baby.

Expert Tips

Excessive iron intake can be harmful, especially to children, and may lead to iron toxicity—keep it out of reach. If you experience allergic reactions like rash or swelling, stop using the product immediately. Iron may cause gastrointestinal issues, such as stomach upset, constipation, or diarrhoea, and it can turn stools black (a harmless side effect). If these symptoms persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider. Use Ferium XT Tablet 15's cautiously if you have gastrointestinal disorders, iron overload conditions (like haemochromatosis), or a history of vitamin B12 deficiency. Always follow the prescribed dosage to prevent toxicity, and inform your healthcare provider about any other medications or supplements, particularly those that affect iron absorption.
