What is Proferrin Es?
Proferrin Es is a brand-name over-the-counter iron supplement to increase iron levels in the blood to address poor nutrition, pregnancy, athletic activity, age-related issues, or other reasons. Iron is vital to the blood's transport of oxygen to the body's cells.
Proferrin Es is an uncommon iron supplement in that it uses heme iron polypeptide, which is iron extracted from the red blood cells of cows. Rather than an iron mineral, such as ferrous fumarate or ferrous sulfate, the iron in Proferrin Es comes attached to a type of protein, making it easier to absorb and having fewer side effects, such as stomach upset or constipation
Proferrin Es is sometimes prescribed to patients with iron-deficiency anemia, poor nutrition, or pregnancy—any condition involving a shortage of iron in the red blood cells.
What are the side effects of Proferrin Es?
Common side effects of Proferrin Es include but are not limited to upset stomach, stomach cramps, constipation, diarrhea, or black or bloody stools. Allergic reactions to heme iron polypeptide are extremely rare. While identical to the side effects typical of iron supplements, these side effects tend to be less common and less severe than other iron supplements.
Although iron is a naturally occurring and critical part of our diet, overdosing on iron can lead to iron poisoning and even death. Always follow your doctor's instructions or the suggested dosage on the supplement.
