Description & Therapeutic Class
Ferric Ammonium Citrate + Folic Acid + Cyanocobalamin Syrup belongs to the Syrups category within the Haematology and Nutraceuticals therapeutic segments. This combination addresses both iron deficiency anaemia and megaloblastic anaemia components in a single formulation.
- Ferric Ammonium Citrate 160mg — provides elemental iron for haemoglobin synthesis
- Folic Acid 0.5mg — supports red blood cell maturation and prevents megaloblastic anaemia
- Cyanocobalamin 7.5mcg — essential for erythropoiesis and neurological function
For pharmaceutical marketing companies, this is a high-prescription gynaecology and paediatric product with consistent demand across pregnancy, lactation, and nutritional deficiency management. Saar Biotech manufactures it from our manufacturing facility in Baddi.

The Saar Biotech Advantage
At Saar Biotech, we manufacture this haematinic syrup using a controlled oral syrup manufacturing process that ensures dose uniformity, palatability, and packaging reliability.
- Three-API Uniformity: Each active must be uniformly distributed. Our high-shear mixing and validated fill procedures ensure dose-to-dose consistency.
- Taste Masking: Iron salts have metallic taste profiles. We develop palatable syrup bases that mask bitterness and metallic notes.
- pH and Stability Management: All three actives remain chemically stable for 24 months under tropical storage conditions.
- 200ml and 300ml Pack Coverage: From dark amber bottles to drip-off embossed cartons — our packaging options help haematinic brands stand out.

Mechanism of Action & Manufacturing Integrity
Three-Component Clinical Mechanism
Ferric Ammonium Citrate provides ferric iron, reduced to ferrous form in the stomach for absorption in the duodenum and jejunum. Iron is incorporated into haemoglobin, myoglobin, and iron-containing enzymes essential for oxygen transport and cellular metabolism.
Folic Acid is converted to tetrahydrofolate, essential for DNA synthesis and red blood cell maturation. Deficiency leads to megaloblastic anaemia characterised by large, immature red blood cells.
Cyanocobalamin acts as a coenzyme in nucleic acid synthesis and myelin formation. It is essential for haematopoiesis and neurological function.
Manufacturing Integrity
- Iron Stability: Iron salts require pH optimisation to prevent precipitation and oxidation.
- Vitamin Stability: Folic acid and cyanocobalamin are sensitive to light and heat, requiring careful formulation.
- Taste Masking: Iron salts have metallic taste profiles requiring advanced taste-masking.

Pharmacokinetics & B2B Commercial Value
- Absorption: Iron is absorbed in the duodenum and jejunum; absorption is enhanced by vitamin C and reduced by tannins and phytates.
- Distribution: Iron is transported bound to transferrin; folic acid and cyanocobalamin are widely distributed to body tissues.
- Excretion: Iron is excreted via sloughed intestinal cells and bile; excess water-soluble vitamins are excreted in urine.
- Broad Prescriber Base: Used across gynaecology, paediatrics, and general medicine — wide prescriber reach.
- 200ml/300ml Pack Logic: The 300ml format provides extended supply for chronic anaemia management.
