What is Niferex (Polysaccharide-Iron complex) Used For?

Niferex (Polysaccharide-Iron complex) is an oral iron supplement primarily used to prevent and treat iron deficiency anemia. It is also used to improve the overall nutritional status of individuals with iron deficiency.

Niferex works by supplying the body with iron, an essential nutrient required for various biological functions. Iron is a critical component of proteins like heme, which is found in red blood cells, as well as several nonheme iron proteins. The specific type of iron used in this supplement, polysaccharide-iron complex, is a non-ionic form where elemental iron is bound to a carbohydrate polymer (starch) to improve tolerability and absorption with reduced gastrointestinal irritation.

In specific combination formulations that include additional nutrients, Vitamin C helps facilitate the entry of iron into the specialized cells in the small intestine called enterocytes. Also, the Vitamin B12 in these formulations supports the healthy development and maturation of red blood cells. Folate is also present to help maintain healthy blood levels and prevent further deficiency. Finally, zinc is included to support the immune system and the regular process of cell division and growth.
