Ferculis 100 mg Injection 5 ml is primarily used to treat iron deficiency and anaemia. Iron deficiency occurs mainly due to poor diet, poor absorption of food or increased folate use in the body (during pregnancy). Anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to various body tissues.

Ferculis 100 mg Injection 5 ml contains elemental iron, required by the red blood cells to carry oxygen to other body cells and tissues. By combining with a protein in the blood called haemoglobin, iron helps carry adequate oxygen to various body parts.

In some cases, it may cause side effects such as muscle cramps, nausea, vomiting, changes in taste, diarrhoea, constipation, headache, cough, back pain, flu-like symptoms, joint pain, and dizziness. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Ferculis 100 mg Injection 5 ml or its inactive components, please inform your doctor. Brief your medical history to the doctor if you have any heart/kidney/liver diseases, iron overload disorders like hemochromatosis, hemosiderosis, and intestinal problems (ulcer, colitis) before starting Ferculis 100 mg Injection 5 ml. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult the doctor before using Ferculis 100 mg Injection 5 ml.
