Red Iron XT tablets, containing 100 mg of Ferrous Ascorbate and 1.5 mg of Folic Acid, can help prevent or treat iron and folate deficiency during menstruation. However, they should only be taken if advised by a doctor for your specific condition, as your iron needs may vary. These tablets support red blood cell production and help maintain healthy iron levels. Common side effects may include nausea, constipation, stomach upset, dark-coloured stools, diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort, or a metallic taste. Rare allergic reactions, such as rash, itching, or swelling, may also occur. Medical supervision is essential, particularly if you have pre-existing health conditions or experience any significant side effects.
