Dexorange 200ml Syrup | Orange Flavour
Description
Dexorange Syrup is a popular hematinic supplement used to prevent and treat anaemia caused by deficiencies of iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12. It is especially beneficial in conditions such as iron deficiency anaemia, chronic blood loss, hookworm infestations, pregnancy, and lactation, where the body’s demand for these nutrients is higher.
This syrup contains a combination of ferric ammonium citrate (iron), folic acid (vitamin B9), and cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) as its active ingredients. These nutrients are essential for the healthy production of red blood cells and haemoglobin. Deficiency of any of these can lead to anaemia, causing symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and pale skin.
By replenishing iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12, Dexorange Syrup helps restore normal blood levels and improves oxygen transport in the body. Regular use, as prescribed, can reduce symptoms of anaemia and boost overall energy levels and immunity. Another syrup with the same composition is Larous trio syrup, which may be prescribed as an alternative.
Always take it in the dose and duration recommended by your doctor. It is best to take it regularly for the maximum benefits. Avoid consuming it with tea or coffee, as they may interfere with iron absorption and reduce effectiveness.
Before starting Dexorange Syrup, inform your doctor about your complete medical history and any other medicines or supplements you are taking. This syrup is generally safe, but your doctor’s supervision is important, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any pre-existing health conditions.
