Can Floradix Increase The WBC Count In Blood?

Yes. I am a 56 year old female. I have had my blood reports which indicate my bilirubin levels are high at 1.6. My white blood count is borderline at 4.0 where the norm is 4.0 to 11.0 I am feeling very tired and was wondering if iron (floradix) would help with that. Thank you

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some viral infection. It leads to low wbc count. Moreover your bilirubin level is high. You should go for complete liver function test. Like SGOT, SGPT, Alkaline phosphatase and ultrasound abdomen if needed. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Once your treatment start uour wbc count will increase automatically. Flodarix (iron) doesn't increase your total wbc count. If you have iron deficiency then you should take it according to advise.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
