{"product_id":"maltofer-iron-syrup-150ml","title":"Maltofer Iron Syrup 150ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eAustralia's No.1 selling therapeutic oral iron^, 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaltofer is for the treatment of iron deficiency in adults and adolescents where the use of ferrous iron supplements is not tolerated, or otherwise inappropriate. For the prevention of iron deficiency in adults and adolescents determined by a medical practitioner to be at high‐risk, where the use of ferrous iron supplements is not tolerated, or otherwise inappropriate. If you have iron deficiency, your doctor will advise you whether an oral iron treatment is required.\u003cbr\u003e^IQVIA Sales data MAT Nov 2025\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eINSTRUCTIONS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n• Treatment of iron deficiency in adults and adolescents (Children ≥ 12 years) where the use of ferrous iron supplements is not tolerated, or otherwise inappropriate, take 100mg to 200 mg iron (10 – 20 mL syrup) daily preferably with food, or higher doses as directed by your medical practitioner.\u003cbr\u003e\n• Prevention of iron deficiency in adults and adolescents (Children ≥ 12 years) at high risk where the use of ferrous iron supplements is not tolerated, or otherwise\u003cbr\u003e\ninappropriate, take 100mg iron (10 mL syrup) daily preferably with food, or higher doses as directed by your medical practitioner.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eINGREDIENTS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nActive Ingredient: 100mg iron\/10mL as 370mg iron polymaltose.\u003cbr\u003e\nOther ingredients: cream flavour, ethanol, methyl hydroxybenzoate, propyl hydroxybenzoate, water-purified, sodium hydroxide, sorbitol solution (70%) non-crystallising, and sucrose.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWARNINGS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMaltofer Syrup contains sorbitol and sucrose\/sugar.
