About this product

Overview

Feralife Chewable Tablet contains Iron-III-Hydroxide Polymaltose, a type of iron supplement used to treat or prevent iron deficiency anemia. Iron is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in the production of hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body. Iron deficiency can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath.

Uses

  • Feralife Chewable Tablet is prescribed for the treatment and prevention of iron deficiency anemia, which may occur due to inadequate dietary intake of iron, chronic blood loss, or conditions such as pregnancy or menstruation.
  • It helps replenish iron stores in the body and restore hemoglobin levels, thereby improving symptoms associated with iron deficiency anemia.

How It Works

  • Iron-III-Hydroxide Polymaltose in Feralife Chewable Tablet provides a stable and bioavailable form of iron that is easily absorbed by the body.
  • Once absorbed, iron is transported to the bone marrow, where it is utilized in the synthesis of hemoglobin and red blood cells.
  • By increasing the availability of iron in the body, Feralife Chewable Tablet helps correct iron deficiency anemia and improve overall health and well-being.

Dosage

  • The dosage of Feralife Chewable Tablet is determined by the prescribing healthcare provider based on factors such as the patient’s age, weight, severity of iron deficiency, and response to treatment.
  • It is usually taken orally with water, preferably on an empty stomach or as directed by the physician.
  • The recommended dosage for adults is typically 1 to 2 tablets daily, depending on the severity of the anemia.

Precautions

  • Feralife Chewable Tablet should be used with caution in patients with a history of gastrointestinal disorders such as peptic ulcer disease or inflammatory bowel disease, as it may cause gastrointestinal irritation or constipation.
  • It should not be taken concomitantly with certain medications or substances that may interfere with iron absorption, such as antacids, calcium supplements, or tea/coffee.
  • Iron supplements should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Feralife Chewable Tablet may include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, abdominal discomfort, constipation, or diarrhea. Less common side effects may include darkening of the stools, which is a harmless but temporary effect of iron supplementation. In rare cases, allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or swelling may occur.

When Not to Use

  • Feralife Chewable Tablet is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity or allergy to Iron-III-Hydroxide Polymaltose or any components of the formulation.
  • It should not be used in patients with hemochromatosis (iron overload disorder) or conditions associated with iron accumulation in the body.
