Ferrous ascorbate serves as a highly absorbable source of iron to support hemoglobin synthesis, folic acid is essential for red blood cell production and DNA synthesis, and zinc acts as a cofactor for numerous enzymes involved in cellular metabolism and immune function. Additionally, Varmed Pharma markets a syrup formulation under the same brand name containing ferric ammonium citrate, cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12), and folic acid, as well as an injection formulation containing iron sucrose.
