Active Ingredient

Ferric citrate coordination complex is specifically designed to have a high surface area and a defined molar ratio of ferric iron to citrate. The high surface area of ferric citrate coordination complex impacts ferric iron solubility at physiological pH and allows part of ferric iron to be absorbed and supply iron to the metabolic pathway. Ferric citrate coordination complex has a dual mechanism of action, one that is associated with providing a source of ferric iron and one associated with decreasing the absorption of phosphorous.
