It is recommended not to take OXFER XT TABLET 10'S along with tea, coffee, milk, and eggs since they might interfere with iron absorption from OXFER XT TABLET 10'S.

About OXFER XT TABLET 10'S

OXFER XT TABLET 10'S belongs to a class of 'nutritional supplements,' primarily used to treat iron deficiency and its associated anaemia. Iron deficiency anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells due to low iron levels.

Folic acid helps form red blood cells and prevents and treats folate deficiency (low blood levels of folate). Elemental Zinc is a mineral that promotes the growth and development of body tissues.

Your doctor will decide the dosage based on your medical condition. In some cases, OXFER XT TABLET 10'S may cause side effects like nausea, diarrhoea, constipation, and stomach upset. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Brief your medical history to the doctor if you have any heart/kidney/liver diseases, iron overload disorders like hemochromatosis, hemosiderosis, and intestinal problems (ulcer, colitis) before starting OXFER XT TABLET 10'S. It is essential to seek medical advice before starting OXFER XT TABLET 10'S if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
