What is Iron Tablet Used for?


Iron Tablet (Ferrous Gluconate) is an over-the-counter multivitamin used as an iron supplement to treat or prevent low blood levels of iron (due to anemia or pregnancy). Iron is an essential mineral the body needs to produce red blood cells and keep you healthy. The active ingredient in Iron Tablets is Ferrous Gluconate. Ferrous Gluconate belongs to the class of medication called Iron supplements. Iron is usually absorbed from food and becomes a part of your hemoglobin (in the blood) and myoglobin (in the muscle). Hemoglobin carries oxygen through the blood to tissues and organs. Myoglobin helps the muscle cells store oxygen.
