Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml

Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml is used to treat or prevent iron deficiency and iron deficiency anaemia. Its main uses include:

• Iron deficiency anaemia: Replenishes iron needed to produce haemoglobin and healthy red blood cells. Correcting iron deficiency may help improve symptoms such as tiredness, weakness, shortness of breath, dizziness, and pale skin.
• Prevention of iron deficiency: Helps maintain adequate iron levels in people at increased risk of deficiency, such as those with inadequate dietary iron intake, increased iron requirements, or ongoing blood loss, when recommended by a doctor.

Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml helps restore iron levels and supports the production of healthy red blood cells. Its main benefits include:

• Supports haemoglobin production: Provides iron needed to make haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body.
• Supports healthy red blood cell formation: Helps the body produce healthy red blood cells when iron levels are low.
• Improves oxygen delivery: Restoring iron levels helps red blood cells carry oxygen effectively to the body’s tissues and organs.
• Helps reduce deficiency-related tiredness: Correcting iron deficiency may gradually improve tiredness, weakness, dizziness, and reduced energy levels.
• Supports increased iron needs: Helps maintain adequate iron levels when iron requirements are increased or dietary intake is insufficient, as advised by a doctor.

• Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml can be taken with food to avoid stomach upset or as advised by the doctor.
• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safety.
• Take the prescribed dose of Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml by mouth using the measuring cup/dosing syringe/dropper.
• Shake the bottle well before use.

• Include iron-rich foods: Add foods such as green leafy vegetables, pulses, beans, lentils, sesame seeds, fortified cereals, eggs, fish, and lean meat to your diet, according to your dietary preferences.
• Pair plant-based iron with vitamin C: Eat vitamin C-rich foods, such as amla, guava, oranges, tomatoes, or capsicum, with iron-rich meals to help improve the absorption of iron from plant foods.
• Avoid tea or coffee around the time of taking Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml: Tea and coffee contain compounds that may reduce iron absorption. Keep a suitable interval between these drinks and your medicine, as advised by your doctor or pharmacist.
• Separate calcium-rich foods when advised: Milk, dairy products, and calcium supplements may reduce iron absorption when taken at the same time. Ask your doctor or pharmacist how long to separate them from Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml.
• Eat enough fibre and drink adequate fluids: Fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and sufficient fluids may help reduce constipation during iron treatment. Follow your doctor’s advice if you have been asked to restrict fluids.
• Do not rely on diet alone to treat diagnosed anaemia: Continue taking Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml for the prescribed duration. Dietary changes support treatment but may not provide enough iron to correct an established deficiency.

• Take the medicine for the prescribed duration: Continue treatment even if tiredness or weakness improves. Your body may need additional time to restore its iron stores.
• Attend scheduled blood tests: Your doctor may monitor your haemoglobin and iron levels to assess your response and determine how long treatment is needed.
• Expect darker stools: Dark-coloured stools are common during iron treatment and are usually harmless. Contact your doctor if stools are black and tar-like or accompanied by abdominal pain, weakness, dizziness, or visible blood.
• Tell your doctor about other causes of anaemia: Do not use Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml to self-treat unexplained tiredness or anaemia. Blood tests may be needed to confirm iron deficiency and identify its cause.
• Do not take additional iron products without advice: Tell your doctor or pharmacist about all multivitamins, iron supplements, and other iron-containing medicines you use. Taking too much iron may be harmful.
• Keep the medicine away from children: Accidental iron overdose can be life-threatening, particularly in young children. Store Hemolite 231 mg Syrup 150 ml securely out of their sight and reach.
• Seek urgent help after an overdose: If more than the recommended amount is taken, seek immediate medical attention even if there are no symptoms. Do not wait for symptoms to develop.
• Seek medical advice for severe symptoms: Contact your doctor if you develop severe or persistent abdominal pain, repeated vomiting, severe constipation, or persistent diarrhoea. Seek immediate medical attention for difficulty breathing or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat.
