2. Uses of Farric Plus

This combination may be prescribed or recommended for:

• Iron-deficiency anaemia: To replenish iron stores and support haemoglobin production.

• Nutritional deficiencies: When dietary intake or absorption of iron and certain vitamins is inadequate.

• Pregnancy: To meet increased nutritional requirements when prescribed by an obstetrician.

• Recovery from blood loss: To help restore iron levels when iron deficiency is present.

• Bone and immune health: To supplement vitamin D and zinc when needed.

It is important to establish the cause of anaemia. Iron supplements are not appropriate for every type of anaemia.

3. How to take it

The correct dose depends on the amount of elemental iron in each capsule, your age and the reason for treatment.

Swallow the softgel whole with water, following your doctor's instructions. Iron is generally absorbed better on an empty stomach, but taking it with food may reduce nausea or stomach discomfort. Avoid taking it at the same time as calcium supplements, milk, tea or coffee.

Seek urgent medical attention after a suspected iron overdose, especially if a child has swallowed the capsules. Keep the product out of children's reach.

5. Precautions and interactions

Consult your doctor before taking Farric Plus if you have iron overload, unexplained anaemia, kidney disease, or are already taking another iron or prenatal supplement.

Iron can interfere with certain medicines, including levothyroxine and levodopa. Calcium can reduce iron absorption, and medicines that suppress stomach acid may affect how much iron the body absorbs.

6. How long does it take to work?

If you have iron-deficiency anaemia and the iron dose is adequate, haemoglobin may begin to improve within a few weeks. Replenishing iron stores can take several months. Your doctor may monitor your complete blood count (CBC) and ferritin to assess your response.
