SuspensionClinical Overview
Oral Iron and Folic Acid Formulations (Ferrous Ascorbate 100mg, Carbonyl Iron 50mg/100mg, Ferrous Asparto Glycinate with Folic Acid 1.5mg, L-Methylfolate, Zinc, and Vitamin B12) is an evidence-based hematinic on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. Ferrous ascorbate combines synthetic ascorbic acid (vitamin C) with divalent iron (Fe2+), maintaining iron in its soluble, highly absorbable ferrous state across duodenal pH and dramatically enhancing bioavailability while minimizing gastric mucosal irritation. Carbonyl iron provides ultra-pure elemental iron with delayed gastric acid dissolution, virtually eliminating nausea and toxicity. Folic acid and B12 support DNA synthesis and normoblastic erythropoiesis. Indicated for prevention and treatment of iron deficiency anemia, nutritional deficiency in pregnancy and lactation, and chronic menorrhagia.

Usage Guidelines
Take orally 1 tablet/capsule once or twice daily with a full glass of water. For maximal absorption, take on an empty stomach (1 hour before or 2 hours after meals). If gastric upset occurs, take immediately after meals. Avoid consuming with tea, coffee, milk, calcium, or antacids (tannins, phytates, and calcium inhibit iron absorption by >50-70%). Continue for 3 months after hemoglobin normalizes to replenish bone marrow iron stores.
General Administration Advice: Adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage, frequency, and treatment course. For oral medications, swallow with sufficient water. Never stop antibiotics, psychiatric medications, or antihypertensives abruptly without clinical direction.
Possible Side Effects
Common: Harmless black discoloration of stools (universal), constipation, mild nausea, dark urine, epigastric fullness, metallic taste. Rare/Severe: Severe iron intoxication upon accidental overdose in young children.
*Note: Individual physiological responses vary. While many patients experience few or no side effects, notify your treating physician if adverse reactions persist or if hypersensitivity (angioedema, skin rash, dyspnea) occurs.
Precautions & Warnings
Over-The-Counter hematinic. Stools will turn black (completely harmless). Keep out of reach of young children (acute iron overdose in toddlers is life-threatening). Space calcium supplements and antacids at least 2 hours apart.

Pyridoxine Hydrochloride 10mg, Doxylamine 10mg and Folic Acid 2.5mg Tablets
Folic Acid (5mg, 15mg) and L-Methylfolate Calcium (1mg, 2.8mg, 7.5mg Tablets) is an essential water-soluble B-vitamin and active tetrahydrofolate derivative on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. L-Methylfolate is the active methylated metabolite (5-MTHF) that crosses the blood-brain barrier directly without requiring enzymatic reduction by methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR). Transports one-carbon units for purine and thymidylate synthesis, essential for DNA replication, cell division, and homocysteine remethylation. Indicated for prevention of neural tube defects (spina bifida, anencephaly) in pregnancy, treatment of folate deficiency megaloblastic anemia, hyperhomocysteinemia, and adjunctive therapy in depression.

Polyvitamin Tablets NFI (Prophylactic)
Vitamin B-Complex Formulations (Tablets, Capsules with Zinc, Syrup, and Injection) is a balanced formulation of essential B-group vitamins (B1 Thiamine, B2 Riboflavin, B3 Niacinamide, B5 Calcium Pantothenate, B6 Pyridoxine, B9 Folic Acid, B12 Cobalamin) on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. B-vitamins act as critical water-soluble coenzymes in cellular Krebs cycle energy production, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, erythropoiesis, and myelin integrity. Indicated for prevention and treatment of generalized B-complex deficiencies, aphthous stomatitis/glossitis/angular cheilitis, convalescence, chronic debilitating illness, and nutritional maintenance during prolonged antibiotic therapy.
Vitamin B-Complex Syrup
Thiamine Hydrochloride Tablets (100mg) is an oral Vitamin B1 preparation on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines for prevention and treatment of thiamine deficiency, dry and wet beriberi, and nutritional support in chronic alcoholism.
