Orofer XT Tablet 30'S

Orofer XT Tablet is a nutritional supplement used to manage iron deficiency anaemia (decrease in the count of red blood cells). It contains iron and folic acid as active ingredients that helps overcome nutritional deficiencies.

Ferrous ascorbate (iron) is an essential component of haemoglobin and is necessary for effective formation of red blood cells. It also serves as a cofactor of several essential enzymes.
