Fortiferrum 14 Sachets

Fortiferrum 14 Sachets

Description:

Fortiferrum 14 Sachets is an oral iron supplement in convenient single-dose sachets, formulated by Splendid Pharma as a high-absorption liposomal iron with added vitamin c. It is designed to support the prevention and management of iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia in children and adults, including those with increased iron needs or difficulty tolerating traditional iron salts. The liposomal technology enhances iron bioavailability while helping to reduce common gastrointestinal side effects, making it suitable for long-term use under medical supervision. Fortiferrum has a pleasant strawberry flavor and can be taken directly from the sachet or mixed with water or juice, making it ideal for people who have difficulty swallowing tablets or capsules.

Indications:

• Prevention and dietary management of iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia.
• Support in cases of fatigue, weakness, reduced concentration, and low energy associated with low iron levels.
• Supplementation during periods of increased iron requirement such as growth phases in children, adolescence, menstruation, pregnancy, and breastfeeding (under medical supervision).
• Adjunct support for individuals with low dietary iron intake (e.g., restrictive diets, poor appetite).
• Support for patients who cannot tolerate or absorb conventional oral iron salts and need a better-tolerated, high-bioavailability form.
• General maintenance of healthy hemoglobin and red blood cell formation when iron intake from diet is insufficient.

• Iron (as liposomal iron) – exact mg per sachet not specified by the manufacturer in the available information (For full ingredient information, please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.); one sachet provides approximately the daily recommended amount of iron.
