Tnx @ Khadijah and Rosemary, I actually read the leaflet inside and it contains mainly folic acid, iron, vitamin B 12, vitamin C and trace elements. (that for the vamiron). And for the paludrin 100 mg, read abt it online and it says I want be bitten by mosquito if am taking it. Please help me out oo mummies and doctors in the house I need to b fully convinced.

Varmiron is for blood so probably, the noticed you are anaemic or have iron deficiency or are just preventing it. Paludrin is an antimalarial. You shd always ask before accepting a medication. Drs also fail to explain to patients understanding

Abdul Khadijah · Answer

Actually I don't know of them but since u've been given from the hospital I guest its fine. And if you want to know more about them I think u should browse about it OK.
