Savings of 50.23%Feronia XT Tablet is an iron and folic acid supplement primarily used to address and prevent iron deficiency anemia. This combination medicine helps restore healthy hemoglobin levels and red blood cell count in the body. Each Feronia XT Tablet contains Ferrous Ascorbate 100mg, a well-absorbed form of iron, and Folic Acid 1.5mg.
Iron is a vital micronutrient essential for the production of red blood cells, enabling them to carry oxygen throughout the body. Adequate iron levels are crucial for combating symptoms like tiredness, weakness, and shortness of breath associated with anemia, by improving overall oxygen supply.
Folic acid, also known as Vitamin B9, plays a key role in the formation of healthy red blood cells. It works with iron to reduce fatigue and other signs of anemia. Additionally, folic acid supports a healthy nervous system and helps protect brain cells and nerves.
Always take Feronia XT Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; do not crush or chew it. Adhere strictly to the recommended dosage. Before starting Feronia XT Tablet, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any pre-existing medical conditions, to ensure safe and appropriate use.
Uses:
- Treatment and Prevention of Iron Deficiency Anemia: This is the primary use, addressing conditions where the body lacks sufficient iron to produce healthy red blood cells.
- Nutritional Anemia: It is used to manage anemia caused by deficiencies in both iron and folic acid.
- Pregnancy and Lactation: Often prescribed during pregnancy and breastfeeding to meet the increased demands for iron and folic acid, essential for maternal health and fetal/infant development.
- Blood Loss: May be prescribed to patients experiencing chronic blood loss (e.g., due to heavy menstrual periods, gastrointestinal bleeding) to replenish iron stores.
- Post-Surgical Recovery: Can be used to aid recovery in patients who have undergone surgery and may have experienced blood loss.
