Maltofer Fol (Folic Acid, Iron)

Iron supplies the elemental metal needed for heme synthesis, a core component of hemoglobin that transports oxygen. Folic acid is converted to tetrahydrofolate, a co‑factor essential for DNA synthesis and red‑cell maturation. Together they support the production of healthy red blood cells and correct deficiencies.

The appropriate dose of Maltofer Fol is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s age, severity of deficiency, and clinical response. Dosage may vary, and patients should follow the specific instructions provided by their prescriber.

Iron and folic acid are important nutrients during pregnancy and lactation. While Maltofer Fol can be used when prescribed, pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should discuss its use with their healthcare provider to ensure appropriate dosing and to assess any potential risks.

To request Maltofer Fol, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies, and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details (including any cold‑chain requirements), and import documentation.

Maltofer Fol combines iron and folic acid in a single oral formulation, reducing pill burden and simplifying adherence compared with taking two separate products. The combined approach ensures simultaneous replenishment of both nutrients, which can be advantageous in patients who need both iron and folate correction.

Store Maltofer Fol at ambient temperature below 25 °C. Keep the product in its original packaging, protect it from moisture and direct light, and ensure the container is tightly closed to maintain stability.

Maltofer Fol is taken orally, usually with a full glass of water. It can be taken with or without food, but separating it from calcium‑rich foods, antacids, or certain antibiotics by at least two hours may improve absorption.

Serious risks include allergic reactions such as rash, swelling, or anaphylaxis, and iron overload when used in excess or in patients with disorders of iron metabolism. Severe constipation or gastrointestinal obstruction can also occur, requiring prompt medical attention.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to iron, folic acid, or any excipients in the product should avoid it. Patients with hemochromatosis, severe anemia not caused by iron deficiency, active infections, or certain gastrointestinal disorders should consult a healthcare professional before use.
