About I-Rich Xt Tablet

I-Rich Xt Tablet belongs to a class of medications called 'haematinics' primarily used to treat anaemia (lack of blood) that occurs mainly due to poor diet, poor absorption of food, or increased folate use in the body (in pregnancy). Anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells for carrying adequate oxygen required to various body tissues.

I-Rich Xt Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Ferrous ascorbate (iron supplement) and folic acid (a form of vitamin B9). I-Rich Xt Tablet works by increasing red blood cells (RBC) and haemoglobin (a protein) production in the body.
