Ferrous Ascorbate eq. to Elemental iron 100mg , Folic acid I.P 1.5 mg TAB

THIS tablet containing ferrous ascorbate (equivalent to 100mg elemental iron) and folic acid (1.5mg) is a nutritional supplement primarily used to treat and prevent iron deficiency anemia and folate deficiency. It is especially important for use during pregnancy. Primary Uses

• Treatment of Iron Deficiency Anemia: This is the main use, as the iron supplement helps the body produce more red blood cells and hemoglobin, which carries oxygen throughout the body. This helps alleviate symptoms like tiredness, weakness, and pale skin.
• Treatment and Prevention of Folate Deficiency: Folic acid (Vitamin B9) is vital for the formation of healthy red blood cells.
• Pregnancy Support: The combination is essential during pregnancy to meet the increased demand for iron and to support the healthy development of the baby's brain and spinal cord, preventing birth defects like spina bifida.
• Nutritional Deficiencies: It can also be prescribed to individuals with poor diet, chronic illness, or those recovering from surgery or significant blood loss to restore essential nutrient levels. 

How It Works

• Ferrous Ascorbate: This form of iron is easily absorbed by the body. The ascorbate (vitamin C) component enhances the absorption of iron from the diet and the supplement itself.
• Folic Acid: This B vitamin aids in the production and maturation of new red blood cells. 

Important Note: This medication should be taken as directed by a healthcare professional. Coffee, tea, and dairy products can reduce iron absorption, so it's generally advised to avoid consuming them around the time of taking the tablet. Ferrous Ascorbate + Folic Acid is a combination of two nutritional supplements: Ferrous Ascorbate and Folic Acid which replenish the body's stores of important nutrients. Folic acid is a form of vitamin B. It plays a vital role in the formation of red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body. It is also essential in pregnancy due to its role in the development of the unborn baby's brain and spinal cord. Ferrous Ascorbate acts as a catalyst in various biochemical reactions in our body, facilitates transport and utilization of oxygen and helps in cell growth and proliferation. This improves the production of red blood cells and hemoglobin
