About Speedral New Capsule 15's

Speedral New Capsule 15's is a health supplement used to treat anemia (lack of blood) due to iron deficiency and chronic kidney disease. Also, Speedral New Capsule 15's is used to treat iron-deficiency anaemia during 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.

Speedral New Capsule 15's is a combination of three drugs, namely: Folic acid (a form of vitamin B9), Ferric pyrophosphate (iron supplement) and Glycine (amino acid). Ferric pyrophosphate and folic acid work by increasing red blood cells (RBC) and haemoglobin (a protein) production in the body. As a result, an adequate number of RBCs are produced in the body, so each tissue gets a sufficient supply of oxygen. Glycine is an amino acid used to synthesise proteins in the body.

Most of these side effects of Speedral New Capsule 15's do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
