About Cheri Syrup

Cheri Syrup is used to treat iron deficiency anaemia and nutritional deficiencies. Iron deficiency anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells due to low iron levels. Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body is unable to absorb or get enough nutrients from food.

Cheri Syrup contains Iron, Folic acid, and Cyanocobalamin. Iron is an essential mineral that aids in producing red blood cells and the transportation of oxygen to body tissues. Folic acid helps in forming red blood cells and prevents and treats folate deficiency (low blood levels of folate). Cyanocobalamin is a form of vitamin B12 that helps properly function the brain and nerves and produces red blood cells.

Do not take Cheri Syrup if you're allergic to any ingredient in it. In some cases, Cheri Syrup may cause side effects like nausea, diarrhoea, constipation, and stomach upset. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

It is essential to seek medical advice before starting to Cheri Syrup if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
