Description

Iron Polymaltose Complex is a water soluble, macromolecular complex of polynuclear iron (III) hydroxide and partially hydrolyzed dextrin (polymaltose). It is rapidly absorbed with a high rate of iron utilization and produces an effective increase in haemoglobin. Folic Acid helps to the proper development of the fetus. Zinc keeps enzymes working and helps metabolize proteins. Vitamins are essential for building up tissue and the release of energy from the breakdown of foods.
