Livogen Cap Tab 15’s

Livogen Captabs belongs to a class of medications called haematinics, primarily used to treat anaemia (lack of blood) and folic acid deficiency that occurs mainly due to poor diet, poor absorption of food, or increased folate use in the body (in pregnancy). Anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen required by various body tissues.

Livogen Captabs is a combination of two drugs, namely: Ferrous fumarate (an iron supplement) and folic acid (a form of vitamin B9). Livogen Captabs works by increasing red blood cells (RBC) and haemoglobin (a protein) production in the body. As a result, an adequate number of RBCs are produced in the body so that the body’s tissue gets a sufficient supply of oxygen.

Take Livogen Captabs as advised by your doctor. In some cases, you may experience vomiting, nausea, constipation, diarrhoea, stomach pain or a change in the colour of the stool. Most of these side effects of Livogen Captabs do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
