Introduction to Nephro-fe Capsule

Nephro-Fe Capsule is a dietary supplement with the active ingredient Vitamin Supplement With Iron. It is indicated for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia, a condition caused by a deficiency of iron in the body. Iron is essential for the production of red blood cells and the transport of oxygen in the blood. This capsule is also indicated for addressing vitamin deficiency, as it contains various B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6) and other vitamins (Folic acid, Biotin, Methylcobalamin, Vitamin C) that play major roles in various metabolic processes.

Do not consume this drug if you are allergic to the medicine's active ingredient or any other ingredients listed on the product label. Before taking Nephro-Fe Capsule, inform your physician if you have a form of anemia other than iron-deficiency anemia or any other condition that affects your body's iron levels. Your doctor can assess your specific condition and determine whether this iron supplement is suitable for you. This drug is best absorbed on an empty stomach but can be taken with food if it causes stomach upset. However, avoid taking iron supplements with calcium-rich foods or beverages (e.g., dairy products) and substances inhibiting iron absorption (e.g., tea and coffee). Vitamin C-rich foods or supplements may enhance iron absorption. 

If you have a history of stomach or duodenal ulcers or if you currently have an ulcer that is being treated, it's important to inform your doctor before taking this drug. Individuals who have problems associated with the narrowing of their intestine (stricture) or out pocketing of the inner layer of their intestine (diverticular disease) should inform their doctor before taking Nephro-Fe Capsule. These conditions can influence how your body absorbs nutrients, including iron, and your doctor may need to adjust your treatment plan accordingly. Before starting this treatment, inform the physician if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or think you might be pregnant.
