How It Works
Orheptal Syrup works by providing essential nutrients needed for red blood cell formation. The iron content supports hemoglobin production, while Vitamin B12 and other B vitamins facilitate proper red blood cell development and maturation. The liver extract provides additional hematopoietic factors that support blood formation processes.
Duration of Action
The nutrients in Orheptal Syrup are gradually absorbed and utilized by the body. Initial effects may be noticed within a few days, but optimal benefits typically require consistent use for 4-8 weeks. The water-soluble vitamins are utilized quickly while iron stores build up over time with regular supplementation.
