Ferrochelate XT Syrup belongs to a class of medications called haematinics, primarily used to treat anaemia (deficiency of iron and haemoglobin). Iron or folic acid deficiency occurs mainly due to poor diet, poor food absorption, or increased folate use in the body (in pregnancy). Anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to various body tissues.

Ferrochelate XT Syrup is a combination of two drugs: Elemental Iron and Folic acid. Elemental iron helps transport oxygen throughout the body and produce red blood cells. Folic acid works by boosting the production of red blood cells (RBCs) in the body. Together, Ferrochelate XT Syrup helps treat anaemia.

You are advised to take Ferrochelate XT Syrup for as long as your doctor has recommended it for you, depending on your medical condition. You may sometimes experience nausea, constipation, stomach upset, pyrosis (burning sensation in the chest), and black or tarry stools. Most of these side effects of Ferrochelate XT Syrup do not require medical attention and typically resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Ferrochelate XT Syrup is primarily used to treat anaemia (deficiency of red blood cells and haemoglobin). The body's demand for iron and folic acid increases during pregnancy. Therefore, Ferrochelate XT Syrup acts as a pregnancy supplement. It also helps the body produce and maintain new cells, preventing the DNA from mutating, which can lead to cancer. Ferrochelate XT Syrup contains Elemental Iron and Folic acid (haematinics combination), which boost the body's production of red blood cells (RBC) and haemoglobin. Thus, using Ferrochelate XT Syrup is associated with a reduced risk of iron deficiency and anaemia, especially in pregnant women.

Do not take Ferrochelate XT Syrup if you are allergic to iron, folic acid or any of the ingredients of Ferrochelate XT Syrup . Do not start taking any new medication without telling your doctor. Ferrochelate XT Syrup is not recommended for use in certain medical conditions, such as active bacterial infections, hemolytic anaemia (a condition in which red blood cells are destroyed faster than they can be produced), hemosiderosis (excessive iron buildup in tissues), or hemochromatosis (a condition where the body absorbs and stores excessive amounts of iron). Ferrochelate XT Syrup is generally safe to consume during pregnancy. However, it should be taken under the supervision of a doctor. Let your doctor know if you are a nursing mother before starting Ferrochelate XT Syrup . This supplement should only be given to a child under 12 years of age only if the doctor advises.
