Citrate Iron is an ingredient that supplements iron in the body to prevent and treat anemia.
MFDS ingredient code M282661
Citrate Iron is an inorganic compound that contains iron and is used in pharmaceuticals to replenish iron deficiency in the body. It is primarily used to treat anemia and aims to improve symptoms caused by iron deficiency.
When there is a deficiency of iron in the body, erythrocyte production becomes impaired, leading to anemia. Citrate Iron is absorbed as iron in the gastrointestinal tract, helping synthesize hemoglobin in the blood and improving oxygen-carrying capacity.
Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.
Unlike other iron preparations, Citrate Iron binds with citric acid to have a higher absorption rate and relatively fewer gastrointestinal disturbances. Additionally, it is characterized by the ability of citric acid to assist metabolic processes in the body beyond just providing iron.
