Icrate-XT Syrup is a hematinic syrup that helps treat iron deficiency and its associated anaemia. It contains ferrous bisglycinate that has better iron absorption when compared to other salts. It is helpful in the maintenance of haemoglobin levels. This supplement has a lesser incidence of gastrointestinal side effects when compared to other iron supplements/ haematinics.

• Ferrous bisglycinate/Iron is used to treat anaemia caused due to low levels of iron in the body. It is beneficial in forming haemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all body parts. It boosts immune and cognitive function and supports healthy skin, hair and nails.
• Folic acid helps form red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. It is essential for healthy cell growth and function. Folic acid helps prevent birth defects in pregnant women.
• Methylcobalamin/Vitamin B12 regulates body functions like cell multiplication, blood cell formation, and protein synthesis. 
• Zinc boosts immunity and promotes the growth and development of body tissues.

Shake the syrup bottle well before use. Take it with a measuring cup/dosing syringe in the dose and duration recommended by the doctor.
