About Hemral 100mg Injection

Hemral 100mg Injection is used to treat iron deficiency and anaemia (deficiency of iron and haemoglobin). Iron deficiency occurs mainly due to poor diet, poor absorption of food or increased folate use in the body (during pregnancy). Anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells to carry the adequate oxygen required to various body tissues.

Hemral 100mg Injection contains 'Iron,' an essential body mineral. It is a nutritional supplement required by the red blood cells to carry oxygen to other body cells and tissues. Combined with a protein in the blood called haemoglobin, iron helps carry adequate oxygen to various body parts. It improves the quality of blood by increasing levels of haemoglobin (blood protein) and red blood cells. Hemral 100mg Injection also has immunity-enhancing, anti-carcinogenic (preventing cancer), and cognition-enhancing properties.

This medicine will be administered by a healthcare professional. Your doctor will decide the dosage based on your medical condition. In some cases, it may cause side effects like muscle cramps, nausea, vomiting, taste changes, diarrhoea, constipation, headache, cough, back pain, flu symptoms, joint pain, and dizziness.
