FAQs

FFZ Tablet 15's contains Ferrous fumarate, Folic acid, and Zinc sulphate. Ferrous fumarate acts as a source of iron which helps in the transportation of oxygen throughout the body and the production of red blood cells. Folic acid is necessary for various bodily functions, such as nucleotide biosynthesis and remethylation of homocysteine. Zinc sulphate helps in the growth and development of body tissues.

Iron supplements cause the stools/poop to turn black or greyish. Do not worry, as it is a common side-effect that occurs due to the loss of unabsorbed iron. Consult your doctor if you have any concerns regarding this.
