Indications of Zif Forte Capsule
Iron, folic acid, zinc, vitamin B complex, and vitamin C deficiencies are treated and prevented with Zif Forte Capsule, especially during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Pharmacology of Zif Forte Capsule
The mineral iron comes in the form of carbonyl iron. The body needs iron for a variety of processes, most notably the transportation of oxygen in the blood. Iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia are prevented and treated with carbonyl iron, a dietary supplement.
The synthesis of DNA required for cell replication, the metabolism of amino acids, and the creation of red blood cells are all enhanced by folic acid (compounds necessary for the manufacture of proteins).
Several physiological activities, including the operation of numerous enzymes in the body, depend on zinc. Poor night vision, slow wound healing, poor male sexual development and function, poor appetite (possibly due to a decrease in the sense of taste and smell), a decreased ability to fight infections, diarrhea, dermatitis, and in children, growth retardation are all possible consequences of deficiency.
Zif Forte Capsule Dosage & Administration
Adults: Take one capsule per day with food, or as your doctor instructs.
Use in Children and Adolescents: It is advised to use in children and adolescents after consulting with a doctor.
Interaction
Levodopa, levothyroxine, methyldopa, penicillamine, tetracycline antibiotics, and quinolone antibiotics are all inhibited by carbonyl iron. Phenobarbital, phenytoin, and primidone plasma concentrations may be lowered as a result of folic acid's interactions with antiepileptic drugs.
Contraindications
It is not recommended for people who have a known hypersensitivity to any of the components. In the presence of hemolytic anemia, iron treatment is contraindicated.
Zif Forte Capsule Side Effects
Folic acid administration has been associated with allergic sensitivity. Constipation may result from taking an iron supplement orally, especially in elderly people.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Any medication should be avoided during the first trimester of pregnancy if at all feasible. Iron administration during the first trimester, therefore, necessitates definitive proof of Iron insufficiency. During the duration of the pregnancy, prophylaxis of iron deficiency is warranted if an insufficient diet necessitates supplemental Zinc and Folic acid.
Precautions & Warnings
Patients at risk of iron excess, such as those with hemochromatosis, hemolytic anemia, or red cell aplasia, should be monitored closely. Iron chelates with doxycycline, perhaps impairing absorption.
Storage Conditions
Store at temperatures below 30°C and away from light and moisture. Keep any medications out of children's reach.
