Indications

Mode of action

How do the ingredients of the medicine work?

Iron: Iron is one of the vital trace elements and is involved in many metabolic processes in the body. Iron is important, for example, for the formation of red blood cells.

Ascorbic acid (vitamin C): The active ingredient is water-soluble vitamin C. It supports the immune system in the fight against pathogens and, together with vitamin E, neutralizes aggressive oxygen species and free radicals. It has a positive effect on less serious illnesses such as colds or flu. It also accelerates blood clotting, keeps some toxic heavy metals at bay, and allows the body to absorb more iron from the intestines. Furthermore, the active ingredient can act as a buffer, thus helping to make a medication more easily digestible.
