  • Anemia in pregnancy

Benefits of Autrin Capsule

In Nutritional deficiency
Autrin replaces the vitamins or minerals your body is short of, correcting the deficiency and the symptoms it was causing.
In Dietary supplementation
Autrin fills the gap between what your diet provides and what your body needs, which matters most when appetite is poor, needs are raised, or a medical condition limits absorption.
In Vitamin B deficiency
Autrin restores the B vitamins your body needs to turn food into energy and to keep nerves and blood cells healthy, correcting the deficiency behind symptoms such as tiredness, sore tongue and pins and needles.
In Nerve pain and tingling
Autrin supplies the vitamins nerves need to repair their protective covering, which over weeks can ease the burning, tingling and numbness of nerve damage.
In Anaemia
Autrin gives the bone marrow the B12 and folate it needs to make healthy red blood cells, correcting the anaemia and the tiredness and breathlessness that come with it.
In Tiredness due to deficiency
Autrin corrects a lack of B vitamins, which is a common and easily missed reason for feeling drained. Energy returns as the stores are rebuilt.

How Autrin Capsule works

Ferrous fumarate replenishes iron stores needed for hemoglobin formation and oxygen transport. Folic acid and vitamin B12 support DNA synthesis and red blood cell maturation, helping correct megaloblastic and mixed nutritional anemias.

How to take Autrin Capsule

Take as directed by a doctor, usually 1 capsule daily or as prescribed. Preferably take after food to reduce stomach upset; swallow whole with water. Avoid taking with tea/coffee, calcium/antacids close to the dose as they can reduce iron absorption.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting and stomach pain, and with iron can be dangerous, especially in children. It is unlikely to cause serious harm, because the body passes surplus B vitamins out in the urine. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Autrin Capsule

Most side effects of Autrin are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Nausea
  • stomach upset
  • constipation
  • diarrhea
  • abdominal pain
  • metallic taste
  • vomiting
  • dark/black stools

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Quick tips for Autrin Capsule

  • Take it with food unless the pack says otherwise.

  • A supplement corrects a deficiency; it is not a general energy tonic.
  • If you are on it for nerve symptoms, keep your review appointment so the underlying cause is looked for.
