Fercee XT Tablet
Description
Fercee XT tablet is a supplement that contains a combination of vitamin B9 (folic acid) and iron, two essential components for maintaining optimal health. This supplement is primarily used for the treatment and prevention of iron and folic acid deficiency, a condition known as anaemia. Anaemia is characterised by symptoms such as weakness, fatigue, difficulty breathing, headaches, irritability, and difficulty concentrating. It is used as a nutritional supplement during pregnancy, breastfeeding, after surgery, or in conditions where the body has difficulty absorbing nutrients.
Folic acid, also known as vitamin B9, is a vital vitamin that plays a crucial role in the synthesis of DNA and amino acids. It is essential for cell division and the development of blood cells. For pregnant women, an adequate intake of folic acid is critical for the proper development of the baby's brain and spinal cord, as a deficiency can lead to birth defects. Iron is another vital mineral required by the body, crucial for the formation of haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. Iron also plays a significant role in immunity, hormone formation, and regulating body temperature.
The Fercee XT tablet should be taken as advised by a doctor, preferably one hour before a meal. It is recommended to avoid taking tea or coffee along with the supplement, as these can interfere with its absorption. It is important not to exceed the recommended daily dose. The supplement should be stored in a cool, dry place and kept out of the reach of children.
Certain precautions should be taken before using the Fercee XT tablet. Individuals with existing medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or kidney or liver problems should consult a doctor. Individuals taking other medications, supplements, or following complementary health approaches should also consult a healthcare professional. It should not be taken if you are allergic to any of its components. If surgery is planned, a doctor may advise stopping the supplement 2-3 weeks in advance. Dietary supplements should complement a well-balanced diet and healthy lifestyle, not replace them.
