Pharmics motto is Better Tolerated equals Better Results. Pharmics has developed a line of very well tolerated prenatal vitamins and iron supplements. The O-Cal family of prenatal vitamins provide essential nutrients for women during their child bearing years. It is our goal that every child receive proper nutrition during the critical years of development (both pre and postnatal). O-Cal products are small easy to swallow tablets that are gentle, dye and gluten free.Iron is an essential mineral that is necessary for life; it is also the most common nutritional deficiency in the world. Iron plays an important role in making red blood cells that carry oxygen. The need for extra iron may be caused by several conditions including the loss of blood, diets low in iron, pregnancy, heavy menstrual periods, weight loss surgery (bariatric), gastrointestinal abnormalities, normal body changes (growth spurts in children), and kidney disease.Studies indicate there may be a correlation with ADHD and iron deficiency. Iron supplements are commonly recommended for infants and toddlers, teenage girls, and women who are pregnant or of childbearing age to help prevent anemia. Ask your health care provider before taking an iron supplement.The Ferretts family of Iron Supplements provide iron with a unique delivery mechanism for better tolerability and absorption. We have an iron supplement for everyone, oral tablet, liquid iron and chewable iron. Give it a try and feel the difference.
