What does a tablet for iron deficiency contain?

A tablet for iron deficiency typically contains ferrous iron in the form of ferrous sulfate, ferrous gluconate, or ferrous fumarate as the active ingredient. These compounds provide a bioavailable source of iron that the body can absorb to help increase hemoglobin levels and address anemia. Additionally, the tablet may include ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to enhance iron absorption, as well as excipients for stability and formulation.
