Ferose Hydroxide Polymaltose Complex Supplement Syrup for All Kinds of Iron Deficiencies, 100ml

Ferose is an iron supplement syrup using iron hydroxide polymaltose complex rather than a simple iron salt. The polymaltose form releases iron more gradually, which is why it is often chosen by people who have found ferrous sulphate hard on the stomach. A syrup also allows the dose to be measured precisely, which matters more with iron than with most supplements.

Benefits

• Iron contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin, and to the normal transport of oxygen in the body
• Iron also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, and to normal cognitive function
• The polymaltose complex form is generally better tolerated than ferrous salts, which commonly cause nausea and constipation
• A syrup lets the dose be adjusted precisely and suits anyone who cannot swallow tablets
• Iron levels should be confirmed by a blood test rather than guessed at, so speak to your doctor before starting

How to Use

• Take exactly as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. Do not self-adjust the dose
• Use the measuring device supplied rather than a kitchen spoon
• Avoid taking it with tea, coffee, milk or calcium supplements, all of which reduce iron absorption
• Iron can darken the stools. This is expected and not a cause for concern
• Store in a cool, dry place with the cap closed
• Keep well out of reach of children. Accidental iron overdose in young children is serious and requires immediate medical attention
