About SYSFOL 10MG TABLET

SYSFOL 10MG TABLET belongs to a class of medications called 'vitamins' used to treat or prevent anaemia (lack of blood) caused due to deficiency of folic acid, anaemia in pregnancy, anaemia due to damaged red blood cells, anaemia in kidney dialysis patients and anaemia that occurs as a side effect of certain medicines. SYSFOL 10MG TABLET may be used in women before and during pregnancy to prevent spina bifida (abnormality of the spine) in babies. Anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells to carry the adequate oxygen required to various body tissues.

The SYSFOL 10MG TABLET contains Folic acid (a form of vitamin B9) that increases healthy red blood cell (RBC) production in the body that carries oxygen throughout the body. As a result, an adequate amount of haemoglobin (Hb) is produced in the body so that body's each tissue gets a sufficient supply of oxygen.

Take SYSFOL 10MG TABLET as recommended by your doctor. You may experience nausea, black stool, constipation, loss of appetite, bloating or flatulence (gas) in some cases. Most of these side effects of SYSFOL 10MG TABLET do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor. 

If you are allergic to SYSFOL 10MG TABLET or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a doctor before using SYSFOL 10MG TABLET. SYSFOL 10MG TABLET should be used with caution in children and only if recommended by a doctor. If you have an allergy to any sugars, inform your doctor before taking SYSFOL 10MG TABLET as it may contain lactose. If you have a stomach ulcer, vitamin B12 deficiency, any blood disorder, repeated blood transfusions, ulcerative colitis (inflammation of the colon), pernicious anaemia (anaemia due to lack of vitamin B12) or folate-dependent tumour, inform your doctor before taking SYSFOL 10MG TABLET.
