Overview
Ifas Tablets (30 pack) are an iron and folic acid supplement (IFAS), widely used to prevent and treat iron-deficiency anaemia and to support healthy pregnancy. Iron helps the body make healthy red blood cells that carry oxygen, while folic acid supports the making of new cells and, in pregnancy, helps protect the developing baby. A practical anaemia-prevention supplement for women and expectant mothers. Confirm the iron and folic acid amounts on the pack.
Directions for Use
Take only as directed by your doctor, pharmacist or clinic. Commonly one tablet daily, swallowed with water. Taking it with vitamin C (such as a citrus drink) aids iron absorption, while tea, coffee, milk and calcium reduce it, so separate these by a couple of hours. If it upsets your stomach, taking it with a little food can help. Take consistently as advised.
Iron can cause stomach upset, constipation and harmless dark stools. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Iron overdose is dangerous, especially to children, so keep well out of their reach. Tell your doctor before use if you have a condition that causes iron build-up, stomach ulcers, or take other medicines (iron can reduce absorption of some). For pregnancy use, follow your clinic's advice. Store in a cool, dry place. This product information is for general guidance only and does not replace professional medical advice. Keep all medicines out of reach of children.
Active: Iron (as a ferrous salt) with Folic acid per tablet. Confirm the exact amounts on the pack.
