OROFER XT PLUS SUSP

About

OROFER XT PLUS SUSP is a comprehensive oral suspension designed to combat various forms of anemia by providing a synergistic blend of essential hematinic agents, typically including Ferrous Ascorbate, Folic Acid, and Vitamin B12. Ferrous Ascorbate ensures optimal iron absorption, crucial for hemoglobin synthesis and oxygen transport. Folic Acid is vital for DNA synthesis, cell division, and the maturation of red blood cells, preventing megaloblastic anemia and supporting fetal development.

Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) is equally important for red blood cell formation, neurological function, and DNA synthesis, addressing pernicious anemia and other B12 deficiencies. This multi-nutrient formulation offers a holistic approach to managing nutritional anemias, particularly beneficial for individuals with increased demands such as pregnant women, growing children, or those with malabsorption issues. The suspension format enhances palatability and ease of administration, ensuring better patient adherence and improved therapeutic outcomes by effectively replenishing depleted nutrient stores.
