Composition

Each capsule contains:

• Ferric Maltol 30 mg

Mechanism of Action

Ferric Maltol provides iron in a stable complex with maltol, enhancing intestinal absorption while reducing free iron in the gut that can cause irritation.

• Iron is released in the small intestine and absorbed into the bloodstream

• Supports hemoglobin synthesis and red blood cell production

• Restores iron stores in the body efficiently and safely

This mechanism ensures effective treatment of iron deficiency anemia with improved tolerability.
