INTRODUCTION

HuntRed Z Tablet is a nutritional supplement used to treat or prevent iron deficiency anemia (lack of red blood cells). It contains ferrous ascorbate, folic acid and zinc as active ingredients that are important minerals needed by the body to produce red blood cells and keep you in good health.

Ferrous Ascorbate is a synthetic molecule of ascorbic acid and iron which maintains iron in highly soluble ferrous form. Folic acid is necessary for the synthesis of nucleic acids and heme (a pigmented, iron-carrying component of the haemoglobin in red blood cells).

Folic acid is also essential for neural tube development during pregnancy which forms the brain and spinal cord of the baby. Zinc plays an important role in the development of embryos and foetuses. It also prevents preterm births and helps in greater infant birth weights and head circumferences.

Take HuntRed Z Tablet as advised by your doctor. It should be used with caution in patients with peptic ulcer, regional enteritis (inflammation of GIT), and ulcerative colitis.

HuntRed Z Tablet is not recommended for use in patients having hemosiderosis (overload of iron in the organs or tissues), hemochromatosis (absorption of too much iron from the food you eat), and hemolytic anemia (low number of red blood cells due to too much haem breakdown in the body).
