Ferro-Sequels is a type of iron. You normally get iron from the foods you eat. In your body, iron becomes a part of your hemoglobin (HEEM o glo bin) and myoglobin (MY o glo bin). Hemoglobin carries oxygen through your blood to tissues and organs. Myoglobin helps your muscle cells store oxygen.

Ferro-Sequels is used to treat iron deficiency anemia (a lack of red blood cells caused by having too little iron in the body).
