Ferrograd Folic Tablets: Iron and Folic Acid Supplement
At MedCare Health Clinic, we introduce Ferrograd Folic Tablets, a specialized iron and folic acid supplement designed to support your health needs. This unique formulation is particularly beneficial for pregnant women, aiding in maintaining optimal iron levels after the initial thirteen weeks of pregnancy.
How Ferrograd Folic Works:
Ferrograd Folic features a controlled-release mechanism within the tablet, ensuring gradual iron release over several hours. This innovative system not only enhances absorption but also minimizes the risk of stomach irritation. Encased within a harmless plastic honeycomb structure with numerous narrow passages containing iron, the tablet traverses the digestive system, gradually releasing iron while the empty honeycomb is expelled through stools.
Warnings and Precautions:
Prior to consuming Ferrograd Folic Tablets, it’s crucial to consult your healthcare provider, especially if you:
- Have a family history of iron-related disorders like haemochromatosis or haemosiderosis.
- Experience difficulties in swallowing. To prevent mouth ulceration and tooth discolouration, ensure the tablets are swallowed whole with water and not chewed, sucked, or kept in the mouth.
- Encounter choking incidents with the tablet. Immediate medical attention is necessary to prevent potential airway complications, including ulcers or bronchus narrowing.
In Case of Overdose or Accidental Ingestion:
If more than one tablet is accidentally consumed in a day or if children ingest the tablets, seek urgent medical advice.
Storage Guidelines:
- Keep Ferrograd Folic Tablets out of reach and sight of children, as overdose can be fatal.
- Avoid using tablets beyond their expiry date, printed on the box and strip. Store below 25°C in the original packaging to shield from light.
- Due to its iron content, follow proper disposal instructions provided by your pharmacist to safeguard the environment.
