Iberet Folic-500 Gradumet Ingredients and Usage

Iberet Folic-500 is a comprehensive hematinic preparation used in Pakistan primarily for the prevention and treatment of iron deficiency anemia, especially during pregnancy and breastfeeding. It contains a high dose of iron (525mg Ferrous Sulfate) in a special Gradumet (controlled-release) format. This is combined with 800mcg of Folic Acid, which is essential for fetal development and red blood cell production, and a high dose of Vitamin C (500mg) to ensure maximum iron absorption.

Additionally, it contains B-complex vitamins to support energy levels. PakMeds provides Iberet Folic-500 as a premium nutritional supplement to help expectant mothers and individuals with chronic iron deficiency maintain their vitality.

How Does Iberet Folic-500 Gradumet Work?

The unique “Gradumet” technology ensures that the iron is released slowly over several hours as the tablet passes through the gastrointestinal tract. This gradual release minimizes the stomach irritation often caused by traditional iron pills. The high dose of Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is included because it keeps iron in the “ferrous” state, which is much more easily absorbed by the intestines.

Folic acid and B-vitamins act as vital building blocks for healthy hemoglobin and nerve function. Together, these ingredients work synergistically to replenish the body’s iron stores and boost the production of healthy red blood cells.

Iberet Folic-500 Gradumet Side Effects

Common side effects of iron supplements include constipation, nausea, and stomach cramps. A harmless but common effect is that your stools may appear black or dark green; this is simply unabsorbed iron being excreted. Some people may notice a metallic taste.

Because Iberet Folic-500 uses controlled-release technology, many of the usual gastric side effects of iron are significantly reduced. If you experience persistent abdominal pain or severe constipation, PakMeds recommends increasing your water and fiber intake or consulting your doctor.

List of Warnings:

Iron supplements should be taken on an empty stomach for best absorption, but can be taken after meals if stomach upset occurs. Avoid taking iron within 2 hours of dairy products, tea, or coffee, as these can block absorption. Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6—keep out of reach. Consult a doctor if you have a history of iron overload disorders like hemochromatosis.
