Medical Description

Ferrous Fumarate tablet is an iron medicine used to prevent or correct iron deficiency anaemia, a condition in which the body lacks enough iron to make healthy red blood cells. Its active ingredient is ferrous fumarate, a form of iron needed to make haemoglobin, the red blood cell protein that carries oxygen. Restoring iron stores supports new red blood cell formation and normal oxygen transport. Ferrous Fumarate tablet is taken by mouth as a whole tablet with water when iron needs are not met by diet or a healthcare professional identifies a deficiency.

How does this medicine work?

Ferrous fumarate supplies iron that the body uses to make haemoglobin and other proteins involved in oxygen transport. Restoring available iron supports the production of healthy red blood cells when iron stores are low.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way Ferrous Fumarate tablet works. Tell your doctor about all the medicines, vitamins and supplements you take.
