Description
Ferrograd-C Prolonged Release Tablets are formulated to provide a controlled release of iron and vitamin C, essential for the production of red blood cells and the prevention of iron-deficiency anaemia. Each tablet contains 325 mg of dried ferrous sulfate (equivalent to 105 mg of elemental iron) and 500 mg of vitamin C (ascorbic acid), which enhances iron absorption. The prolonged-release mechanism ensures a steady absorption of iron, reducing the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects.
