Softeron Capsule 15's belongs to the class of nutritional supplements primarily used to treat anaemia (deficiency of Iron and haemoglobin). Additionally, it also treats constipation during pregnancy. Its deficiency occurs mainly due to poor diet, poor absorption of food, or increased folate use in the body (in pregnancy). Anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen required to various body tissues.
Softeron Capsule 15's is a combination drug containing: Docusate sodium, Iron, and Folic acid primarily used to treat anaemia. Docusate sodium is a stool softener that helps to hydrate and soften the faecal material, facilitating natural defecation. Iron and folic acid (haematinics combination) boost the body's production of red blood cells (RBC). As a result, an adequate number of RBCs are produced in the body, so that body's each tissue gets a sufficient supply of oxygen. Folic acid prevents miscarriage and neural tube defects in infants when used by pregnant women.

Softeron Capsule 15's is a combination of three drugs: Docusate sodium, Iron, and Folic acid, primarily used to treat anaemia (deficiency of red blood cells and haemoglobin). It acts as a supplement in pregnancy as, during pregnancy, the demand for Iron and folic acid in the body is increased. It also helps the body produce and maintain new cells and prevents our DNA from mutating, leading to cancer. Docusate sodium is a stool softener that helps to hydrate and soften the fecal material, facilitating natural defecation. Iron and Folic acid (haematinics combination) work by boosting the production of red blood cells (RBC) and haemoglobin in the body. Thus, using Softeron Capsule 15's is associated with a reduced risk of iron deficiency, anaemia, and constipation, especially in pregnant women.
