What is the dosage of Orofer XT tablet during pregnancy?
Patient: Hello doctor.. M 24 weeks pregnant n my haemoglobin level is 8.5 so my doctor has advised me to take 2 tablets per day of iron,  also with nimbu pani only..so is it safe to take order XT tablets two times a day...would it be harmful for my baby or not Doctor: Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.First of all do not panic.Order XT tablets prescribed to you by your gynecologist is an iron preparation. It is surely not harmful to you and your baby.Iron preparation if taken 30 minutes before food along with lemone water, gets absorbed into the blood to its maximum. This will definitely help you to improve your hemoglobin levels.I will also suggest you to differ calcium supplements at least 4 hours after iron tablets. Please opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen. Meditate. Drink plenty of water.May God bless you with a bundle of Joy.I hope this answer helps you.Thanks.Dr. Purushottam Neurgaonkar
