General Product Description


Maltofer is for the treatment of iron deficiency in adults and adolescents where the use of ferrous iron supplements is not tolerated, or otherwise inappropriate

Maltofer has fewer gastrointestinal side effects and is less likely to cause constipation compared to ferrous sulfate iron. This means less constipation, less nausea, and an effective dose of iron. The absorption of iron from Maltofer takes place by a controlled mechanism. Maltofer does not release large amounts of iron at once, which is why it is less likely to cause gastrointestinal side effects like constipation. Maltofer's active ingredient, iron polymaltose, ensures your body only absorbs the iron it needs when it is needed, providing reliable correction of iron levels.

 

Key Features

  • Clinically proven to correct low iron levels
  • Maltofer has less constipation and less gastrointestinal side effects compared to ferrous sulfate iron
  • Free of Lactose, Gluten, Dairy, Soy & Yeast
  • Vegan friendly
