I want to increase my haemoglobin level. Which medicines can help me improve it?
Low haemoglobin, also called anaemia, means your body does not have enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen properly. This can make you feel tired, weak, dizzy, or short of breath during daily activities. It usually happens due to low levels of iron, folic acid, or vitamin B12, so identifying the exact cause is important before starting any treatment. To improve haemoglobin levels, supplements such as iron, folic acid, or vitamin B12 are commonly used, but they should be taken only if advised or prescribed by your doctor after your blood reports are checked. The type of supplement and dose depend on how low your haemoglobin is and your overall health. Avoid taking any medicine on your own, as it may not be suitable for your condition. You can also support improvement through your diet. Include foods like spinach, beetroot, dates, jaggery, pomegranate, lentils, and green vegetables in your meals. Eating vitamin C-rich foods like lemon water or oranges helps your body absorb iron more effectively. Try to avoid tea or coffee near meals, as they can reduce iron absorption. Regular follow-up with your doctor can help track your progress and guide further care.
