Indication

Sangobion Iron: Ferrous gluconate + Vitamin & Minerals (Sangobion IRON+) provides complete and reliable treatment for a wide range of anemias: iron deficiency anemia; anemia during pregnancy, growth, convalescence and senility; megaloblastic and macrocytic hyperchromic anemias; alimentary anemia; prophylaxis against anemia in blood donors.Sangobion Kids: Iron deficiency anemia in children; latent insufficiencies of iron and of the B vitamins contained in Sangobion Kids during the growth period; iron deficiency after loss of blood, in chronic illnesses and during convalescence.Anemia is most often due to a deficiency of iron and the best way to tackle this is with ferrous gluconate.
