Iron (Carbonyl Iron)

About Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
A highly pure, nontoxic Iron(a minimum 98% iron content), Iron dietary supplement and to treat iron deficiency.
Mechanism of Action of Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
Iron formulations exerts haematinic action by being an essential constituent of haemoglobin. It is necessary for the oxidative process of living tissues.
Pharmacokinets of Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
Absorption: Absorbed orally in ferrous form and poorly absorbed in healthy individuals (about 10%) but in patients suffering from iron deficiency anaemia up to 60% dose is absorbed.
Distribution: Transported in a transferrin bound form in to bone marrow for incorporation in to haemoglobin.
Metabolism: Iron liberated by destruction of haemoglobin is reused by the body.
Excretion: Excretion of iron is minimal. Loss usually occurs in nails, faeces, urine, hair, sweat, and bile.
Onset of Action for Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
4 days
Duration of Action for Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
2 to 4 months

Side Effects of Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
1. Nausea
2. Epigasttric distress
3. Vomiting
4. Constipation
5. Diarrhoea
6. Black stools
7. Temporary staining of teeth with liquid formulations
Contra-indications of Iron (Carbonyl Iron)

Indications for Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
1. Iron deficiency

3. Iron deficiency in infants and children
Interactions for Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
(Oral Iron): Antacids: GI absorption of iron reduced.
Ascorbic acid: GI absorption of iron enhanced.
Chloramphenicol: Serum iron levels may be increased.
Cimetidine: GI absorption may be reduced.
Levodopa: Decreased levodopa serum levels.
Methyldopa: May result in decreased efficacy of methyldopa.
Quinolones: GI absorption of quinolones decreased.
Penicillamine: Marked reduction in GI absorption of penicillamine.
Tetracyclines: Decrease in the absorption of both tetracyclines and iron salts.
Food: Eggs and milk inhibit iron absorption. Administration of calcium and iron supplementation with food reduces ferrous sulfate absorption by one-third. If combined iron and calcium supplementation required then calcium carbonate should be used and the supplementation taken between meals.
Typical Dosage for Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
Oral:
Ferrous fumarate:
Adults: Starts with 50 to 100mg 2 to 3 times daily. Adjust the dosage based on patient`s response.
Children: 4 to 6mg/kg daily in three divided doses.
Ferrous sulphate:
Adults: 100 to 300mg; twice daily. Increases the dosage based on patient`s response if required up to 300mg 4 times daily.
Children (age 2 to 12): 3mg/kg/day in three to four divided doses
Children (age 6months to 2years): 3 to 6mg/kg/day in three to four divided doses

Schedule of Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
H
Storage Requirements for Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
Store in a well closed container in a cool dry place. Protect from light.
Effects of Missed Dosage of Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
Take the missed dose as soon as noticed and if it is the time for next dose then skip the missed dose. Continue the regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
Effects of Overdose of Iron (Carbonyl Iron)
Treatment includes immediate support of airway, respiration, and circulation. In conscious patients induce emesis with ipecac; if not empty stomach by gastric lavage. Follow emesis with lavage, using a 1% sodium bicarbonate solution to convert iron to less irritating poorly absorbed form. Take abdominal X-ray to determine presence of excess iron. Deferoxamine may be used for systemic chelation if serum levels of iron exceed 350mg/dl.

Folic Acid

About Folic Acid
Dietary supplement, Folate derivative( B9 ), Water Soluble Vitamin.
Mechanism of Action of Folic Acid
Folic acid reduced by enzymes folate reductase and dihydrofolate reductase and forms dihydrofolic acid tetrahydrofolic acid respectively. Tetrahydrofolic acid acts as a coenzyme which mediates a number of one carbon transfer reactions by carrying a methyl group as an adduct. It involves a number of reactions such as 1).conversion of homocysteine to methionine. 2).synthesis of thymidylate which is an essential constituent of DNA from methylene-tetrahydrofolic acid. 3). Conversion of serine to glycine by tetrahydrofolic acid and forms methylene-tetrahydrofolic acid. 4).to introduce carbon units at position 2 and 8 during de novo purine synthesis requires formyl-tetrahydrofolic acid and methenyl-tetrahydrofolic acid.5).generation and utilization of "formate pool". 6).For mediating formino group transfer in histidine metabolism. Folic acid is required to maintain normal erythropoiesis and nucleoprotein synthesis.
Pharmacokinets of Folic Acid
Absorption: Well absorbed orally
Distribution: Widely distributed in the body and highest concentration is seen in liver. It appears in the CSF and breast milk
Metabolism: Metabolized in to N-methyl tetrahydrofolic acid in liver
Excretion: Extra drug is excreted unchanged in urine. A small portion of folate is lost by a combination of urinary and fecal excretion and oxidative cleavage of molecule.
Onset of Action for Folic Acid
Oral: 20 to 30minutes
I.V.: 5 minutes
I.M.:10 to 20minutes
Duration of Action for Folic Acid
Oral: 3 to 6 hours
