1. Product Introduction

Healthy Life Pharma Pvt. Ltd. is a specialized Manufacturer of Iron (Haematinic) Syrups in India. While tablets are standard for adults, Liquid Iron Supplements are essential for pediatric patients, the elderly, and those with difficulty swallowing. Our flagship formulation combines Ferric Ammonium Citrate (or Ferrous Ascorbate) with Folic Acid and Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) to provide a comprehensive solution for nutritional anemia.

We offer Contract Manufacturing (Third Party) services for this high-volume liquid product. Iron syrups often suffer from a metallic taste and teeth staining. Our WHO-GMP certified facility in Mumbai utilizes advanced Flavor Masking Technology (Chocolate / Vanilla / Mixed Fruit) to create a palatable syrup that children accept easily. Healthy Inc manages the export logistics, supplying pharmacy chains and pediatric clinics across Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.

3. Manufacturing Technology

Taste-masked nutrition for sensitive palates.

• The Manufacturer: Healthy Life Pharma Pvt. Ltd.

  • Non-Staining Formulation: Traditional iron syrups stain teeth black. We use chelated forms or specific buffering agents to minimize staining and protect dental enamel.

  • Flavor Engineering: The metallic taste of iron is notorious. We use high-quality sweeteners and strong flavor profiles (like Chocolate or Caramel) that mask the metal notes, ensuring high compliance in children.

  • Stability: Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid degrade in liquid iron. We use overages and specific stabilizing agents to ensure the vitamins remain potent throughout the shelf life.

• The Exporter: Healthy Inc

  • Breakage-Proof: We use export-grade PET bottles that are lightweight and shatter-resistant, reducing freight costs and breakage risks during sea shipping.

4. Quality Assurance

We adhere to strict Pharmacopoeial standards:

• Assay: We confirm the potency of Iron, Folic Acid, and B12 is strictly within label limits.

• Microbial Limits: As a liquid sugar-based product, it is prone to bacterial growth. We strictly test for pathogens and use effective preservative systems (Methylparaben/Propylparaben).

• pH Stability: We control the pH to prevent precipitation of the iron salt.

5. Why Use Haematinic Syrup?

Liquid blood builder.

• Mechanism:

  • Iron: Essential for Hemoglobin synthesis.

  • Pediatric Anemia: Treating iron deficiency in growing children.

  • Pregnancy: Liquid option for women who cannot tolerate iron tablets (nausea).

  • Post-Surgery: Rapid restoration of hemoglobin levels after blood loss.
