Lycofer Capsules are a premium blood tonic and hematinic supplement specially formulated for the prevention and treatment of iron-deficiency anemia in Nigeria. Manufactured by Cooper Pharma and marketed by Pharma Ethics Ltd, Lycofer provides a highly effective way to boost blood levels without the typical stomach discomfort associated with traditional iron tablets.
Why Choose Lycofer?
Lycofer is unique because it contains Sodium Feredetate, a specialized form of iron. Unlike ferrous sulfate, Sodium Feredetate is highly bioavailable and is much gentler on the digestive system, making it a preferred choice for individuals who experience constipation or nausea with other blood builders.
Key Ingredients & Benefits
- Sodium Feredetate (231mg): Provides 33mg of elemental iron. It is absorbed more efficiently and does not stain teeth.
- Folic Acid (5mg): Vital for red blood cell formation and supporting a healthy pregnancy.
- Vitamin B12 (15mcg): Helps combat fatigue and supports nerve function.
- Zinc (5mg): Strengthens the immune system and supports overall health.
Indications & Uses
Lycofer is commonly used for:
- Treating iron deficiency (low blood).
- Supporting pregnant women and nursing mothers.
- Nutritional support for recovery from illness or blood loss.
- Managing megaloblastic anemia.
Dosage & How to Use
Take one (1) capsule daily or as directed by your doctor. For best absorption, take it with a glass of water on an empty stomach. If you have a sensitive stomach, you can take it after a meal. Always consult a GoMed pharmacist if you have questions about your dosage.
