Fefar
Fefar

Dosage Forms:

  • Each sustained-release capsule contains 128.7 mg dried ferrous sulphate (47 mg elemental iron-Fe++) and 0.5 mg folic acid.

Drug Group

Supplement

Mechanism

Iron is an essential mineral and an important component of proteins involved in oxygen transport and metabolism. Folic acid’s primary mechanisms of action are through its role as a one carbon donor. Folate helps in transfer of a single methyl group in various metabolic reactions in the body and in the functioning of the nervous system. It is essential for DNA synthesis. More specifically it helps in the manufacture of nucleic acids like Thymine.اسید فولیک هم از جمله ویتامین های مهم در روند خون سازی است.

Indications

Fefar is a haematinic preparation to prevent the iron and folic-acid deficiency during pregnancy and other conditions.

Dosage and Administration:

  • Adults only: One Fefar capsule a day throughout pregnancy. Some pregnant patients may need a higher prophylactic dose of iron because of dietary or other factors.

Precautions and Warnings

Ferrous sulphate and other iron salts should not be given to patients receiving repeated blood transfusions or to patients with anemia not produced by iron deficiency unless iron deficiency is also present. Care should be taken when given to patients with iron-storage or iron-absorption diseases, haemoglobinopathies or existing gastro-intestinal disease.

Side Effects

Therapeutic doses of iron may cause gastro-intestinal discomfort, diarrhea, and vomiting. These side effects have been reported to occur in up to 20% or more of patients treated and are related to the amount of elemental iron. Although iron is better absorbed between meals, side effects can be reduced by taking it with, or immediately after, food.
Interactions: The absorption of iron salts and tetracyclines and fluroquinolones is diminished when they are taken concomitantly by mouth. If treatment with both drugs is required, the iron salt should be administered 3 hours before or 2 hours after the tetracycline and fluroquinolones. The absorption of iron salts is also decreased in the presence of antacids or when taken with tea. Iron salts appear to reduce the effects of penicillamine.

Pregnancy and Lactation

It is allowed and recommended.

Packaging

  • 10 capsules in one blister. 3 blisters in a box.
Calcifar

Calcifar

Dosage Forms:

  • Calcifar: Enteric-coated tablets containing: Ca: 800 mg, Mg: 200 mg, zinc: 8 mg, vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol): 400 IU
  • Calcifar plus: Enteric-coated tablets containing: Ca: 800 mg, Mg: 200 mg, zinc: 8 mg, vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol): 400 IU, vitamin K1: 40.25 mcg

Drug Group

Supplement

Mechanism

Calcium, magnesium, and zinc work together in the body to enhance each other’s absorption and utilization. Calcium and magnesium are essential factors in the formation and maintenance of healthy bones, Vitamin D stimulates bone matrix formation and bone maturation. It also enhances osteoclastic activity and there are some data to suggest that it may influence differentiation of bone cell precursors. Vitamin K has an important function for the skeleton as it acts as a cofactor in the post-translational carboxylation of several bone proteins, with osteocalcin being the most abundant.

Indications

This advanced, proprietary formulation provides a comprehensive blend of nutrients which support and promote bone health. The components include the important D3 and K2 Vitamin forms along with a host of chelated mineral forms. Together, these ingredients work to promote proper bone mineralization. When used as suggested, this formula provides 100% of the daily value for calcium. When combined with a healthy diet and physical activity, calcium may reduce the risk of osteoporosis.

Dosage and Administration:

  • As a dietary supplement for adults, take 3 tablets daily, preferably at mealtime, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.

Precautions and Warnings

Do not take calcium supplements within 1 to 2 hours of taking other medicine by mouth. Do not take other medicines or dietary supplements containing large amounts of calcium, phosphates, magnesium, or vitamin D. Do not take calcium supplements within 1 to 2 hours of eating large amounts of fiber-containing foods, such as bran and whole-grain cereals or breads, especially if you are being treated for hypocalcaemia (not enough calcium in your blood). Do not drink large amounts of alcohol or caffeine-containing beverages (usually more than 8 cups of coffee a day).

Side Effects

Nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, weight loss, behavioral changes, frequent urination, muscle and bone pain, headache, increased thirst, fatigue or unusual weakness, irregular heartbeat, drowsiness, pancreatitis, skin rash, increased sensitivity of eyes to light.
Interactions: Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist of all prescription and nonprescription/herbal products you may use, especially of: calcium channel blockers (e.g. verapamil, nifedipine), certain anti-seizure medications (e.g. phenytoin, phenobarbital), corticosteroids (e.g. prednisone), digoxin, phosphate binders, thiazide diuretics (e.g. hydrochlorothiazide). Calcium can decrease the absorption of other drugs such as tetracycline antibiotics (e.g. doxycycline, minocycline), levothyroxine, and quinolone antibiotics (e.g. ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin).

Pregnancy and Lactation

Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor.

Side Effects

Side effects that have been reported are mainly mild gastrointestinal complaints such as heartburn, epigastric distress and diarrhea.

Drug Group

Supplement

Mechanism

Both supplements are promoted as cartilage matrix enhancers which are purported to help prevent the breakdown and promote the rebuilding of cartilage.

Because glucosamine is an amino sugar, people with diabetes should check their blood sugar levels more frequently when taking this supplement. In most cases, however, allergies are caused by proteins in shellfish, not chitin, a carbohydrate from which glucosamine is extracted. This supplement is similar in structure to the blood thinning drug heparin, and the combination may cause bleeding in some individuals.
