About Ferium D3 Tablet (Cholecalciferol + Ferrous Ascorbate + Folic Acid + Cyanocobalamin + Pyridoxine Hydrochloride)

• Ferium D3 Tablet contains Cholecalciferol + Ferrous Ascorbate + Folic Acid + Cyanocobalamin + Pyridoxine Hydrochloride as active constituents and used in the treatment of different types of Anaemias, iron deficiencies in pregnancy, infancy or childhood. This drug is also used in the treatment of rickets, osteomalacia, and heart disease due to high cholesterol.
• Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) is a fat-soluble vitamin. It helps the body to absorb calcium & phosphorous found in food & supplements. Vitamin D is produced by the body when the skin is exposed to sunlight. Sunscreen, limited exposure to sunlight, protective clothing, dark skin, and age might prevent getting enough vitamin D from the sun, thus leading to Vitamin D3 Deficiency. Therefore, Vitamin D3 in Ferium-D3 tablet is essential for calcium absorption in the body. 
• Vitamin B complex, which includes Cyanocobalamin, Pyridoxine, and Folic acid, helps in the growth of new cells & tissues. It is also important for the formation of Red Blood Cells. Iron is vital for many functions in the body, especially for the transport of oxygen in the blood.
• Folic acid is a type of vitamin B, which is essential for numerous bodily functions. Functions may range from nucleotide biosynthesis to the remethylation of homocysteine. It plays a vital role during rapid cell division and growth. Both children and adults (Male or female) require folic acid to produce and maintain healthy red blood cells and to prevent anaemia. Iron forms a protein, haemoglobin in RBCs which helps in transportation of oxygen throughout the body, thus making an individual feel energetic. Folic acid can be used in combination with Iron to treat various types of anaemias. 
• Anaemia is the condition in which RBCs either get destructed or become dysfunctional because of the presence of unhealthy proteins (Haemoglobin), which directly affect the binding and transport of oxygen to the body tissues. Hence, it affects the activities of the body leading to excessive fatigue and weakness, complications during pregnancy, or raises the chances of heart problems. Anaemias may be acute (for short duration) or chronic (life-long). There are different types of anaemias like Pernicious, Aplastic, normocytic, megaloblastic, Nutritional, Hemolytic, Sickle cell Anaemia, and others associated with bone marrow disease & inflammatory disease. They may have the following underlined causes:
• Loss of blood due to accidental injuries and menstrual bleeding
• Less availability of iron in your diet which is needed for the production of healthy haemoglobin for RBCs
• Lack of folate or folic acid (Vitamin B9) and vitamin B12 which are responsible for the synthesis of healthy RBCs
• Diseases such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Chronic Ulcers, kidney disease, Crohn's disease and other acute or chronic inflammatory diseases 
• Frequent use of few over-the-counter (OTC) drugs like pain relievers (aspirin), which can cause inflammation of the stomach lining resulting in blood loss
• Bone marrow disorders to synthesize enough RBCs
• Poor diet intake 
• Poor absorption of folic acid, iron, and other vitamins from the intestine.
