A unique hematinic providing two different sources of elemental iron viz. ferrous glycine sulphate and carbonyl iron.
The two sources of elemental iron have different absorption profiles -
Ferrous glycine sulphate —› Immediate absorption
Carbonyl iron —› Immediate and sustained absorption

Better tolerability compared to conventional iron salts, individually
Optifer with non toxic carbonyl iron provides a reasonable good safety compared to conventional iron salts
Optifer provides Vitamin C for enhancing iron absorption
Optifer provides Vitamin B12 and folic acid as additional haemopoietic factors
Optifer provides Zinc, an effective adjuvant along with iron
