Indications
Ferrous Sulfate + Folic Acid + Zinc Sulfate is used to treat iron, folic acid and zinc deficiency, and also to prevent it. It is mainly given during pregnancy and lactation, when the risk of these deficiencies is higher.
⚠️ Always consult a registered physician before taking any medicine.
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
Doctors try to avoid any medicine in the first trimester of pregnancy if possible, and that applies to Ferrous Sulfate with Folic Acid and Zinc Sulfate too. So Iron should be given in the first trimester only when there is definite evidence of Iron deficiency. For the rest of the pregnancy, supplementary Zinc and Folic acid are justified where the diet is inadequate.
⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
