About Fegain Tablet 15's

Fegain Tablet 15's is a combination medication that belongs to the class of drugs called 'hematinic', primarily used to prevent and treat the low levels of folic acid, zinc, and iron in blood during certain health conditions (e.g., anaemia, pregnancy, low diet, surgery recovery). Anaemia is a health condition that happens when the body has a lower amount of red blood cells or haemoglobin than normal haemoglobin (an iron-rich protein responsible for allowing red blood cells to carry more oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body).  During pregnancy, the body needs more zinc, iron, ad folic acid, and a lack of these components leads to anaemia in either the mother or baby.

Fegain Tablet 15's contains Iron, Zinc, and Folic acid. These three are essential substances required by the body to make more blood cells. Iron is a necessary mineral in the body needed by red blood cells to carry oxygen to other body cells and tissues. Combined with haemoglobin, it helps in attracting oxygen in the lungs. Zinc is needed by the body's immune (defence) system to carry out its functions. It helps in cell growth, division, breakdown of carbohydrates, wound healing, and proper metabolism of iron. Folic acid is a vitamin B that helps the body make more red blood cells and helps the red blood cells carry out more oxygenated blood to other tissues of the body.

 Fegain Tablet 15's comes in the formulation of tablets that need to be taken at the same time of day or as suggested by the doctor. The most common side effects of Fegain Tablet 15's are diarrhoea, constipation, and upset stomach. These undesirable effects are temporary and will disappear as the body adjusts to the medicine. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

If you have or ever had stomach/intestinal problems (e.g., ulcers, colitis), use/abuse of alcohol, or vitamin B12 deficiency (pernicious anaemia), please inform your doctor before taking Fegain Tablet 15's to avoid any complications. Also, mention all the other medications you are taking to affect the way Fegain Tablet 15's works. During pregnancy, Fegain Tablet 15's should only be used if advised by the doctor.
