About SEROFER-XT TABLETS

SEROFER-XT TABLETS belongs to the class of 'nutritional supplements', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body cannot absorb or get enough nutrients from food. It could lead to various health problems, including defective bone growth, skin disorders, digestive issues, and dementia (memory loss).

SEROFER-XT TABLETS is a combination of Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), Cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12), Ferrous ascorbate (Iron), and Folic acid. Cholecalciferol is a form of Vitamin D and helps maintain blood calcium and phosphorus levels and mineralization of bone. Cyanocobalamin regulates body functions like cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Ferrous ascorbate restores the iron levels in the body, which further aids in producing red blood cells and transporting oxygen to body tissues. Folic acid is a form of Vitamin B that helps form red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. 

Your doctor will decide the dosage based on your medical condition. Sometimes, SEROFER-XT TABLETS may have common side effects like stomach upset, diarrhoea, and nausea. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Let your doctor know if you use any medications, including other vitamins, before starting SEROFER-XT TABLETS . Inform your doctor beforehand if you have a history of liver, heart or kidney diseases. It is essential to let your doctor know if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Avoid consuming alcohol along with this supplement to ensure maximum absorption of nutrients. SEROFER-XT TABLETS should be used for children only when the doctor has advised.
