About Tasiron Baby Drop

Tasiron Baby Drop is primarily used to treat anaemia (a lack of red blood cells) in children caused by iron or folic acid deficiency, which mainly occurs due to a poor diet or poor absorption of food. Anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to various body tissues.

Tasiron Baby Drop is a combination of two drugs: Ferric diphosphate (an iron supplement) and Folic acid (a form of vitamin B9). It works by increasing the production of red blood cells (RBCs) and haemoglobin (a protein in RBCs) in the body, thereby helping to prevent and treat anaemia.

Your doctor will recommend the appropriate dose and duration of Tasiron Baby Drop based on your child’s age and body weight. In some cases, your child may experience common side effects such as constipation, diarrhoea, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, bloating, a bitter taste, or a change in stool colour. Most of these side effects of Tasiron Baby Drop do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Before giving Tasiron Baby Drop to your child, inform your doctor if they are allergic to any of its ingredients. To rule out any side effects or interactions, keep your doctor informed about any other medications your child is taking, including OTC (over-the-counter) medicines, vitamins, or herbal supplements.

  • Try to include iron-rich foods in your child’s daily diet, such as whole grains, beans, lentils, dark green leafy vegetables, and fortified cereals.
  • Pair iron-rich meals with vitamin C-rich fruits and vegetables (oranges, kiwi, broccoli, bell peppers) to help your child absorb iron more effectively.
