New Way to Take Iron: IBSA Launches Innovative Orally Dissolving Film Supplement That's Gentle on the Stomach and Easy to Take
IBSA ODF Supplement Range WATFORD, United Kingdom, Aug. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A new generation of vitamin supplementation has arrived in the UK. IBSA, the Swiss-based pharmaceutical company, has launched a groundbreaking Iron Orodispersible Film (ODF), a thin, fast-dissolving supplement strip designed to deliver iron and folic acid without the need for water or swallowing tablets. At a time when up to a third of UK adults report difficulty swallowing pills¹, and many struggle with the gastrointestinal side effects of traditional iron supplements², IBSA Iron ODF offers a welcome solution. Using IBSA's patented FilmTec® technology, this small, lemon-flavoured strip melts in the mouth quickly, delivering a precise dose of 30 mg iron (as ferric pyrophosphate) and 400 μg folic acid with minimal digestive discomfort.'I've been taking Iron supplements for over 10 years and tried so many types, tablets, liquids, you name it. They all made me feel sick with nausea and even vomiting. Since I started using the ODF Iron, I haven't had any of those side effects, and I still get all the benefits. It's made a huge difference to how I feel in the morning'. Emma, verified patient, Oxford. Unlike some iron tablets that can cause side effects such as nausea, constipation, or a metallic taste, IBSA Iron ODF uses ferric pyrophosphate, a gentler form of iron, alongside a minimalist ODF formulation. This form bypasses much of the digestive system, helping reduce irritation whilst maintaining comparable absorption to some Iron tablets². It's also gluten-free, lactose-free, and vegan friendly and contains less than 1 kcal per is it for?IBSA Iron ODF is particularly suited to: Women during menstruation, pregnancy, or postpartum recovery Athletes with higher iron needs People with gastrointestinal absorption issues (e.g. Crohn's, coeliac disease) Anyone who dislikes or struggles to swallow tablets IBSA Iron ODF is part of a new range of oral film supplements now available from IBSA Care.
