Pharmacological properties


Combined antianemic drug.

Ferrous sulfate, which is part of the preparation, compensates for the deficiency of iron in the body. Iron is a part of hemoglobin, myoglobin, cytochrome C, participates in reversible oxygen uptake, being a structural component of heme, and takes part in erythropoiesis.

Ascorbic acid is an antioxidant that increases the absorption of iron by 4 times.

Mucoproteosis is a macromolecular fraction of the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract of sheep, containing aminoglycosides and organically bound sulfates.

Mucoproteosis delays the release of iron ions from the pellets for 7 hours, which causes their absorption from the upper parts of the small intestine and the absence of a local irritating effect on the gastric mucosa.

Pharmacokinetics


Suction

Iron is absorbed mainly from the duodenum and small intestine. Iron bioavailability is 5-35%.

The mucoproteose-iron complex fills the crypts of the intestinal mucosa, which ensures the contact of the complex with the larger surface of the mucous membrane, thereby enhancing the absorption of iron.

Distribution and metabolism

Iron is almost completely bound to plasma transferrins and is involved in the formation of hemoglobin, myoglobin, cytochrome oxidase, or is deposited in body tissues in the form of ferritin.

Withdrawal

Iron is excreted in feces, urine and sweat.
