Maltofer is an oral iron therapy for the treatment and prevention of iron deficiency in adults and adolescents where the use of ferrous iron supplements is not tolerated or is otherwise inappropriate.
Maltofer is less likely to cause constipation compared to ferrous sulfate iron.
Australia'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. The absorption of iron from Maltofer occurs through a controlled mechanism, ensuring that large amounts of iron are not released at once. This minimizes gastrointestinal side effects.
Maltofer's active ingredient, iron polymaltose, ensures your body absorbs only the necessary iron when required.
Maltofer is suitable for adults and adolescents (12 years and older) and may be taken during pregnancy. It is free from gluten, lactose, dairy, soy, and yeast.
Dosage: 100mg elemental iron per dose, preferably with food.
