Orafer XT Syrup

DESCRIPTION

Orafer XT Syrup (also sometimes referred to as Orofer XT or Orofer XT Plus Suspension) is primarily a haematinic or nutritional supplement used to treat and prevent deficiencies, most commonly:

1. Iron Deficiency Anemia: A condition where the body lacks sufficient healthy red blood cells due to low iron.
2. Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) and/or Vitamin B12 Deficiency.

It works by supplying the body with essential nutrients needed for the production of healthy red blood cells and hemoglobin, which carries oxygen throughout the body.

Key Ingredients:

The composition can vary slightly (e.g., between “XT” and “XT Plus”), but the core components often include:

• Elemental Iron (usually in the form of Ferrous Ascorbate): Replenishes iron stores, which is crucial for hemoglobin and red blood cell formation. The Vitamin C component of Ferrous Ascorbate enhances iron absorption.
• Folic Acid (Vitamin B9): Essential for the production of red blood cells and DNA synthesis. It is particularly important during periods of rapid cell division, such as in pregnancy, where it helps prevent neural tube defects in the baby.
• Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B12): Essential for red blood cell production, nerve function, and DNA synthesis.

Common Uses:

• Treatment and prevention of iron deficiency anemia.
• Nutritional support during pregnancy and lactation due to increased requirements for iron and folic acid.
• To address deficiencies caused by poor nutrition, illness, or digestive disorders.

Important Note:

This is a general description. You should always consult a doctor or healthcare provider for a specific diagnosis, appropriate dosage, and to ensure it is safe for you to use, especially if you have other medical conditions or are taking other medications.
