Uni-pharma Hemafer Iron Supplement for Anemia Treatment, Drinkable , 100mg/5ml
Oral vial
About this product
Hemafer 100mg/5ml Oral Solution is a potent and effective iron supplement designed to treat and prevent iron deficiency anemia. Each oral vial delivers a precise dose of iron, a vital mineral essential for the production of hemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. This supplement works by replenishing the body's iron stores, thereby improving oxygen transport and significantly reducing symptoms like fatigue and weakness. It is particularly beneficial for individuals with increased iron requirements, such as pregnant or lactating women, growing children and adolescents, and those experiencing significant blood loss, including heavy menstruation or gastrointestinal bleeding. It also supports individuals with insufficient dietary iron intake or impaired absorption.
How to use
Take Hemafer 100mg/5ml Oral Solution exactly as prescribed by your physician or pharmacist. For optimal absorption, it is generally recommended to take iron supplements on an empty stomach; however, if gastrointestinal upset occurs, you may take it with food. Avoid consuming milk, antacids, or calcium supplements within at least 2 hours of taking this product, as they can hinder iron absorption. Store the vials at room temperature, away from direct light and moisture, and crucially, keep out of reach of children to prevent accidental iron overdose. Do not exceed the recommended dose.
