FERROUS GLUCONATE DIHYDRATE

Synonyms: Iron(II) gluconate dihydrate, Ferrous D-gluconate dihydrate, Gluconic acid iron(II) salt dihydrate, Iron gluconate dihydrate, Ferrous gluconate hydrate

Ferrous gluconate dihydrate is a ferrous salt of gluconic acid, appearing as a pale green to yellowish-green crystalline powder. It is manufactured by reacting ferrous carbonate or reduced iron with gluconic acid, followed by crystallization to yield the dihydrate form. This compound is a well-established source of elemental iron, widely used in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia.

As a source of bioavailable iron, ferrous gluconate dihydrate is valued for its relatively high elemental iron content (approximately 12%) and its good tolerability compared to other iron salts. It is a common active ingredient in iron supplements, multivitamin/mineral formulations, and functional foods. Its water solubility and compatibility with various excipients make it suitable for tablets, capsules, syrups, and effervescent preparations.
