Hi,
Yes, it is the right dose for your hemoglobin level. Hemoglobin level you seem to be suffering from mild anemia for which your doctor has prescribed Fefol-Z once daily in the morning. In addition to iron and folic acid, Fefol-Z capsule also contains Zinc sulphate which will help in preventing the hair fall.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
