ferrofol capsules 47 mg

Ferrofol capsules are a nutritional supplement containing iron and folic acid, two essential elements for healthy blood. Ferrofol capsules are used to prevent and treat iron deficiency and its resulting anemia, especially during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and growth, thereby improving the quality of life of patients with or at risk of iron deficiency.

Active Ingredients in Ferrofol Capsules

Ferofol capsules contain two active ingredients:

Ferrous sulfate: A form of iron used to compensate for iron deficiency in the body. Iron is an essential component of hemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen in red blood cells.

Folic acid: A B vitamin necessary for the production of red blood cells. Folic acid also helps prevent birth defects of the brain and spinal cord in newborns.

Indications for Use of Ferrofol Capsules

Preventing folic acid deficiency, especially during pregnancy, as pregnancy increases the body's need for folic acid.

Improving blood health and increasing hemoglobin levels, which helps reduce fatigue and exhaustion and improve physical and mental performance.
