Overview

Ferrous Ascorbate & Folic Acid,ensures superior absorbtion & better bioavailability.Ferrous Ascorbate & Folic Acid,has additional Anti oxidant properties which ensures maximum iron utilisation.
Ferrous ascorbate folic acid is a vital vitamin that helps a pregnant woman attains a good health during the entire pregnancy. A pregnant woman is likely to become anemic during the entire stage of conception and taking a ferrous ascorbate folic acid regularly or on a daily basis would provide a pregnant woman the sufficient amount of iron and folic acid.

Indications:

Iron deficiency anemia (anemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough healthy red blood cells. Red blood cells provide oxygen to body tissues).
It help to prevent neural tube defects.
Some people use folic acid to prevent colon cancer or cervical cancer. It is also used to prevent heart disease and stroke.

About Composition:

Ferrous Ascorbate:
Ferrous Ascorbate is a syn thetic molecule of ascorbic acid and iron.
It is indicated in the treatment of iron deficiency anemia.
Ascorbic acid enhances absorption of iron.
Folic Acid:
Folic acid also known as folate, vitamin B9 and it is essential for numerous bodily functions.
Folate has to be supplied through the diet to meet their daily requirements.
The human body needs folate to synthesize DNA, repair DNA, and methylate DNA as well as to act as a cofactor in certain biological reactions. It is especially
important in aiding rapid cell division and growth, such as in infancy and pregnancy. Children and adults both require folic acid to produce healthy red blood cells and prevent anemia.
How Folic Acid Work ?:
The basic mechanism of action under lying folic acid is its role in cellular division and DNA synthesis. Without folic acid cells do not divide properly.
Folic acid is critical in the nervous system development of the foetus and for healthy red blood cell production. Folate is also required for the regeneration of methionine from homocysteine and plays a key role as a 'methyl-donor'.
In the CNS folate is involved with methylation and hydroxylation, and both reactions are important in neurotransmitter synthesis and metabolism. Folate is concentrated in the synaptic regions of CNS neurons.
Deficiency :
This deficiency can result in many health problems, the most notable one being neural tube defects in developing embryos. ( Neural tube defects are birth defects of the brain and spinal cord).
Spina bifida occurs when the bones of the spine (vertebrae) do not form properly around part of the baby's spinal cord.



Contraindications:

Ferrous Ascorbate is contraind icated in patients with hypersensitivity to Iron supplementation (which circumvents this mechanism) should be avoided in patients who have active bacterial infections Contraindicated in patients with Hemosiderosis, Hemochromatosis, Hemolytic anemia.

Storage:

Store in cool an d dry place.
