Emzor Folic Acid 5mg (Emzor 5) – 100 Tablets

Emzor Folic Acid 5mg, often referred to as Emzor 5, is a high-quality Vitamin B9 supplement produced by Emzor Pharmaceuticals in Nigeria. It is a fundamental medication used to treat folate deficiency and support the body's production of healthy red blood cells.

What is Emzor 5 Used For?

Emzor 5 is primarily used to treat and prevent megaloblastic anemia caused by a lack of folic acid in the diet or poor absorption by the body. In Nigeria, it is widely used as a daily supplement for:

• Pregnancy Support: Preventing neural tube defects (brain and spinal cord issues) in unborn babies.
• Anemia Treatment: Helping the body produce more red blood cells to transport oxygen.
• General Wellness: Supporting DNA formation and cell repair.

Benefits for Women and Pregnancy

Folic acid is essential for women of childbearing age. Taking Emzor Folic Acid regularly before and during early pregnancy significantly reduces the risk of birth defects. For those trying to conceive, doctors often recommend starting folic acid early to ensure the body has sufficient levels for a healthy start to pregnancy.

Dosage and How to Take

• Adults: Usually one tablet daily, or as prescribed by your doctor.
• Pregnancy: It is typically taken throughout the first trimester as part of routine antenatal care. Always follow the specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider or pharmacist at GoMed.

Important Precautions

While Emzor 5 is generally safe, it should be used with caution if you have a Vitamin B12 deficiency or kidney issues. Store the tablets in a cool, dry place below 25°C, away from direct sunlight.
