About Lexifer Syrup
Lexifer Syrup belongs to the group of anti-anaemic medicines used to treat iron deficiency anaemia (anaemia caused by too little iron in the body). Lexifer Syrup does not cause teeth discolouration and is less likely to cause stomach upset than other iron-containing medicines. Anaemia is when the body does not have enough red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to various body tissues.
Lexifer Syrup contains ‘Sodium Feredetate’, which acts as a source of iron and helps transport oxygen throughout the body and produce red blood cells. Thus, Lexifer Syrup helps treat anaemia.
In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, mild diarrhoea, flatulence, and constipation. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Let your doctor know if you are using prescription/non-prescription drugs, or herbal products before starting Lexifer Syrup . If you are known to be allergic to any of the components in Lexifer Syrup , please inform your doctor. Consult a doctor before taking Lexifer Syrup if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Lexifer Syrup should be given to children only if prescribed by a doctor. It is unknown if alcohol interacts with Lexifer Syrup , so please consult a doctor if you have any concerns.
