    More Information

    Iron is a mineral. Most of the iron in the body is found in the hemoglobin of red blood cells and in the myoglobin of muscle cells. Iron is needed for transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide. It also has other important roles in the body.

    How does it work?

    Iron helps red blood cells deliver oxygen from the lungs to cells all over the body. Once the oxygen is delivered, iron then helps red blood cells carry carbon dioxide waste back to the lungs to be exhaled. Iron also plays a role in many important chemical reactions in the body.

    Iron has a role in creating energy from nutrients. It also contributes to the transmission of nerve impulses — the signals that coordinate the actions of different parts of body. If one has more iron than is needed, it's stored in body for future use. Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency and the leading cause of anemia worldwide. Anemia is a blood condition characterized by a lack of healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin.

    When iron demands increase

    Pregnant & Menstruating women

    • Women who aren't pregnant or nursing need to take in 15 to 18 milligrams of iron daily.
    • Women who are pregnant need significantly more iron.
    • Menstruating women
    • Menstruation depletes iron stores. This is why women have higher anemia rates than men.

    Exercising: Female athletes are at an increased risk for iron deficiency. Researchers theorize that athletes may need more red blood cells to carry oxygen so they can keep exercising.

    Regular blood loss: People who experience excessive blood loss often need extra iron. Regular blood donors and people who have gastrointestinal bleeding are at risk. Gastrointestinal bleeding can be caused by medications or conditions such as ulcers and cancer.

    Bakson's Ferrum Plus Capsules is a combination product that contains iron along withVitamin B12 and Folic acid. It is used to treat or prevent a lack of these nutrients which may occur in certain health conditions (e.g., anemia, pregnancy, poor diet, surgery recovery). This also needs a special reference for its use in females who are anemic due to excessive bleeding during periods.

    • This supplement works better if taken on an empty stomach. One may take with food if it causes an upset stomach. Some foods like eggs, whole grain breads, cereal, dairy products, coffee and tea may make this medicine not work as well.
    • This medicine prevents many other drugs from getting into the body. If you take other drugs, check with doctor to see if other medicines need to be taken at a different time than Ferrum plus capsules

    Action of individual remedies

    Carbonyl iron: Iron is an essential heavy metal that is included in many over-the-counter multivitamin and mineral supplements and is used therapeutically in higher doses to prevent iron deficiency anemia.

    Folic acid: A water-soluble B vitamin is used in the prevention of folate deficiencies. It is needed to form healthy cells, especially red blood cells. It is well recognized for its value in the prevention of birth defects. It reduces the risk of developing high blood pressure (hypertension).

    Cyanocobalamin: It is a naturally occurring form of vitamin B12 that cannot be obtained from plants or sunlight; it is produced by bacteria in the gut of animals and absorbed in the small intestine. This vitamin plays a vital role in the formation of healthy blood cells, energy production, nervous system, cognitive function and homocysteine regulation.
