This preparation is a form of the mineral iron, which is necessary for the formation and function of red blood cells. When the body does not obtain enough iron, it cannot produce the number of normal red blood cells needed to keep the body in good health. This can lead to iron deficiency or iron deficiency anaemia.

Lack of iron may lead to unusual tiredness, shortness of breath, a decrease in physical performance, and learning problems in children and adults, and may increase chances of getting an infection.

Some conditions may increase your need for iron. These include:

• Blood loss
• Burns
• Hemodialysis
• Intestinal diseases
• Stomach problems In addition, infants, especially those receiving breast milk or low-iron formulas, may need additional iron.
