Iron is 102 �g/dl, TIBC- total iron Binding capacity is 275 �g/dl and Transferrin saturation= 37 .00 %. I have been taking folic acid 5 mg/ dL since pregnancy confirm and mama protein powder and Zincovit syrup and Shelcal syrup daily each 1tsf daily from last four month. Kindly suggest how can increase Hb and can start iron tablet or not in minor beta thalassemia case.
