FeraMAX is a brand name for an oral iron supplement used to treat iron deficiency anemia. It contains polydextrose-iron complex (PDIC), which is a patented delivery system for iron supplements. It works by increasing the amount of iron in the body to help the body produce red blood cells. This can help to alleviate symptoms of anemia such as fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath.

Feramax is designed to be gentle on the stomach and minimize common side effects associated with iron supplements. It is known for being more easily tolerated than traditional iron supplements that contain ionic iron, which can cause stomach upset and constipation in some people.

FeraMAX 150 capsules are taken orally, with or without food, as directed by your doctor. The capsules should be swallowed whole with a full glass of water and should not be crushed or chewed. Take the capsules at the same time each day and continue taking them for as long as instructed by your doctor to achieve the best results.

Always carefully read and follow the label and instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Additionally, it is always a good idea to talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns about how to use FeraMAX capsules or any other medication.
