Savings of 56.34%**Orofer XT Tablet Ferrous Ascorbate 100mg + Folic Acid 1.5mg** is an iron and folic acid supplement designed to address **iron deficiency anemia**. This medication works by helping to restore healthy hemoglobin levels and red blood cell count, essential for overall well-being. It combines **Ferrous Ascorbate**, a form of iron, with **Folic Acid**, both crucial active ingredients.

**Folic Acid**, another key component of **Orofer XT Tablet**, plays a crucial role in the formation of new red blood cells.

Additionally, it is important for maintaining a healthy nervous system and supporting brain cell function.
