Description

Effective Iron Supplement for Iron Deficiency Anaemia

Ferrograd Tablets Pack of 30 contain ferrous sulphate, a form of iron crucial for the production of haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen around the body. When iron levels are low, the body cannot produce enough healthy red blood cells, leading to iron-deficiency anaemia. Common symptoms include fatigue, weakness, pale skin, and shortness of breath.

This advanced formulation features an inert porous matrix, allowing the iron to be released gradually over time. This slow-release mechanism is designed to help minimise the gastrointestinal upset often associated with traditional iron supplements, making Ferrograd Tablets Pack of 30 easier to tolerate.
