FEROZI is indicated for the treatment and prophylaxis of iron, folic acid, and zinc deficiency, especially during pregnancy and lactation.

Pharmacology:

Ferrous Sulphate: Essential component in the formation of hemoglobin; adequate amounts of iron are necessary for effective erythropoiesis; also serves as a cofactor of several essential enzymes, including cytochromes that are involved in electron transport. Replacement of iron stores found in hemoglobin, myoglobin, and enzymes; works to transport oxygen via hemoglobin.
Zinc Sulphate: Essential to numerous physiological processes, including the function of many enzymes in the body. Deficiency may lead to poor night vision, slow healing of wounds, poor sexual development and function in males, poor appetite (perhaps owing to a decrease in the sense of taste and smell), a reduced ability to ward off infections, diarrhea, dermatitis, and in children, retarded growth.
Folic Acid: Required for nucleoprotein synthesis and the maintenance of normal erythropoiesis; folic acid is converted in the liver and plasma to its metabolically active form, tetrahydrofolic acid, by dihydrofolate reductase; prevents neural tube defects in women of childbearing potential and higher doses required during pregnancy.

Dosage:

Adults or Elderly: 1 capsule daily. In more severe cases, 2 capsules daily may be required.
Children (Aged over 1 year): 1 capsule daily. The capsule may be opened and the pellets mixed with soft, cool food, but they must not be chewed.

Administration:

For maximum absorption, take on an empty stomach, but may take with or after meals to minimize gastrointestinal irritation.

Interaction:

Iron: Concurrent administration with antacids/H2 antagonists may reduce absorption of iron. Iron may reduce the absorption of levodopa, methyldopa, and penicillamine when given together.
Folic Acid: Interacts with antiepileptics, so plasma concentrations of phenobarbital, phenytoin, and primidone are possibly reduced.
Zinc: May interact with certain antibiotics and medications, potentially affecting absorption.

Contraindications:

Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of its components or those with iron overload.

Side Effects:

Gastrointestinal irritations such as nausea, anorexia, vomiting, discomfort, constipation, and diarrhea may occur. Patients may complain of dark stool. Rarely, there may be allergic reactions.

Pregnancy & Lactation:

Use of any drug during the first trimester of pregnancy should be avoided if possible. Thus, administration of iron during the first trimester requires definite evidence of iron deficiency. Prophylaxis of iron deficiency where inadequate diet calls for supplementary zinc and folic acid is justified during the remainder of pregnancy.
