Lactohem Plus Tablet 10's

Lactohem Plus Tablet is used to prevent and treat iron deficiency by restoring healthy iron levels. Its detailed uses are as follows:

• Iron deficiency anaemia: It helps rebuild low iron reserves in the blood, restoring healthy haemoglobin levels and oxygen flow throughout the body.
• Pregnancy-related anaemia: It supports the increased maternal blood volume and nutritional demands of the developing baby during pregnancy.
• Nutritional iron deficiency: It corrects low iron levels in individuals who do not get enough iron from their daily diet.

Lactohem Plus Tablet helps restore the body's iron stores, improving haemoglobin production and oxygen transport. The key benefits include:

• Reduces fatigue and weakness: Helps relieve chronic tiredness, weakness, and exhaustion by improving oxygen delivery throughout the body.
• Boosts energy and stamina: Restores healthy iron levels, allowing you to gradually regain physical strength and endurance.
• Supports brain function: Improves concentration, memory, and mental clarity by helping overcome the 'brain fog' associated with iron deficiency.
• Promotes faster recovery: Aids red blood cell production, supporting recovery after blood loss due to surgery, heavy menstrual periods, or injury.

• Lactohem Plus Tablet should be taken with food for better absorption. However, avoid taking it with coffee, tea, or dairy products, as they may reduce its absorption.
• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.
• Shake the bottle well before each use.
• Take the recommended dose of Lactohem Plus Tablet by mouth using the measuring cup/dropper provided with the pack.
• Avoid using regular household spoons, as they may not measure the dose correctly.

• Eat iron-rich foods: Include lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, lentils, and dark leafy green vegetables such as spinach in your daily meals.
• Boost iron absorption: Consume vitamin C-rich foods, such as oranges, strawberries, bell peppers, and tomatoes, alongside your meals.
• Prevent constipation: Drink plenty of water throughout the day and gradually increase your dietary fibre intake.
• Avoid foods that reduce iron absorption: Do not consume high-calcium foods, dairy products, eggs, or whole-grain cereals at the same time as your iron supplement, as they can interfere with iron absorption.

• Check the packaging: Ensure the tablet blister pack is fully sealed and undamaged before use.
• Dark stools are normal: Do not be alarmed if your stools turn dark green or black, as this is a common and harmless effect of iron supplements.
• Measure liquid doses accurately: If using the liquid form of Lactohem Plus Tablet , use the provided measuring cup or syringe and rinse your mouth afterwards to help prevent temporary tooth staining.
• Maintain a dosing gap: Wait at least 2 hours before or after taking antacids, calcium supplements, or multi-mineral products, as they can reduce iron absorption.
• Attend follow-up blood tests: Keep a record of your blood test results so your doctor can monitor your iron levels and determine the appropriate duration of treatment.
