Active Ingredient: Ferric maltol
Ferric maltol is indicated for the treatment of iron deficiency in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older.
For this indication, competent medicine agencies globally authorize below treatments:
For:
Oral, 30 milligrams ferric maltol, 2 times daily.
The recommended dose is 30 mg twice daily, morning and evening, on an empty stomach.
Treatment duration will depend on the severity of iron deficiency, but generally at least 12-weeks treatment is required. It is recommended the treatment is continued as long as necessary to replenish the body iron stores according to blood tests.
It should be taken whole on an empty stomach (with half a glass of water), as the absorption of iron is reduced when ferric maltol is taken with food.
