Feofol-Cl Capsule 10pcs Price in Bangladesh

✔️ Uses of Feofol-Cl

• Iron Deficiency 
• Anemia

✔️ Key Functions of Components

• Iron: Essential for hemoglobin formation and effective erythropoiesis; serves as a cofactor for several essential enzymes, including cytochromes involved in electron transport. It is crucial for oxygen transport via hemoglobin.
• Folic Acid: Required for nucleoprotein synthesis and the maintenance of normal erythropoiesis; converted in the liver and plasma to its active form, tetrahydrofolic acid, by dihydrofolate reductase. It prevents neural tube defects in women of childbearing potential, with higher doses needed during pregnancy.

✔️ Side Effects of Feofol-Cl

• Allergic sensitization has been reported with oral administration of folic acid.
• Oral iron preparations can cause constipation, particularly in older patients, and may occasionally lead to fecal impaction.
