Description

Theragran-H is a multivitamin and iron supplement manufactured by GSK Pakistan Limited, formulated to help address nutritional gaps that can arise from an inadequate diet, increased nutritional demands, or certain health conditions. Unlike a plain multivitamin, Theragran-H includes a meaningful dose of iron alongside a broad range of vitamins, making it particularly suited for individuals who need additional support for both general nutrition and iron levels, such as those experiencing mild iron-deficiency-related fatigue. Each pack contains 30 tablets, offering a convenient one-month supply for regular daily use as directed.

Ingredients

Each tablet of Theragran-H contains a combination of vitamins and minerals, including Nicotinamide, Retinol (Vitamin A), Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), Thiamine HCl (Vitamin B1), Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Magnesium Carbonate, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Calcium Pantothenate, Calciferol (Vitamin D), Cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12), Folic Acid, Iron Salts, Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6), and Copper. This combination is designed to support general nutrition while also addressing iron intake. The tablet also contains standard inactive excipients that give it its physical form and support consistent absorption.

Dosage Form

Theragran-H is available as an oral tablet, formulated to combine a broad range of vitamins with iron in a single convenient daily dose. Tablets are intended to be swallowed whole with water.

Uses

Theragran-H is commonly used to help support:

• General Vitamin and Iron Deficiency: Helps address low intake or increased need for vitamins and iron that can result from an unbalanced diet, certain illnesses, or increased physical demands.
• Energy and Vitality: The combination of B vitamins and iron supports the body’s ability to produce energy and helps counter fatigue linked to mild iron deficiency.
• General Convalescence: Often used to support recovery and overall strength during periods of illness or weakness.
• Bone, Skin, and Immune Support: Vitamins A, D, and C included in this formulation contribute to bone health, skin condition, and normal immune function.

Theragran-H is intended to supplement, not replace, a healthy and varied diet, and should not be used to self-treat a diagnosed iron-deficiency condition without a doctor’s guidance.

How to Use

Theragran-H is generally taken once daily, with or after a meal rather than on an empty stomach, as taking it with food can help reduce the stomach irritation that iron-containing supplements can sometimes cause. It should be swallowed whole with a full glass of water. To help avoid interference with iron absorption, it’s best to avoid tea, coffee, fizzy drinks, or dairy products within one to two hours of taking the tablet. If a dose is missed, take it as soon as you remember; if it is nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed one rather than doubling up, since taking too much iron at once can cause stomach upset.

Side Effects

Because Theragran-H contains iron, the most common side effects are related to the digestive system, including stomach discomfort, nausea, constipation, or darkened stools — the latter being a harmless, expected effect of the iron content rather than a cause for concern. These effects can often be reduced by taking the tablet with food or by starting with a smaller dose before working up to a full one, if advised by a doctor. Allergic reactions are uncommon but possible; symptoms such as rash, itching, or swelling of the face or throat should be treated as a medical emergency. Taking more than the recommended amount of iron over time can lead to excess iron buildup in the body, so this supplement should always be used at the recommended dose. This is not an exhaustive list of possible side effects, and anyone experiencing persistent or concerning symptoms should consult a doctor or pharmacist.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Multivitamin and iron supplements like Theragran-H are commonly used to help support increased nutritional needs during pregnancy and breastfeeding, particularly given the higher iron requirements these periods can involve. Even so, it’s important to check with your doctor before starting this supplement during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, especially to avoid overlapping with prenatal vitamins or other iron supplements you may already be taking, since excessive iron intake is not advisable.

Storage Instructions

Store Theragran-H tablets at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and moisture. Keep the tablets in their original packaging until ready for use, ensuring the container is tightly closed after each use. Keep this product well out of the reach and sight of children — iron-containing supplements can be particularly harmful if a child accidentally takes more than one tablet, so extra care with storage is especially important. Do not use tablets beyond their printed expiry date, and dispose of any unused or expired product responsibly.

FAQS

Why does Theragran-H sometimes cause dark-colored stools? This is a normal and harmless effect of the iron content and is not a cause for concern, though you should mention it to your doctor if you have any doubts.

Can I take Theragran-H with tea or coffee? It’s best to avoid tea, coffee, fizzy drinks, or dairy products for one to two hours around the time you take this tablet, as they can interfere with iron absorption.

Is Theragran-H suitable for people with existing iron overload conditions? No. Individuals with conditions such as hemochromatosis, where the body stores too much iron, should avoid this supplement unless specifically advised otherwise by a doctor.

Can children take Theragran-H? Dosing for children should always be confirmed with a doctor, and this product should be kept well out of reach of children given the risks associated with accidental iron overdose.
