How to supplement iron for a 6-month-old baby with anemia

Patient's question:

On August 3, 2013, blood test results: Hemoglobin (HGB) value was 91, Hematocrit (HCT) value was 28.4, Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) value was 71.2.

Doctor's answer:

Anemia is recommended to be treated with both dietary and medicinal approaches, with dietary methods being the primary focus. It is advisable to consume more foods rich in "blood-building nutrients" such as protein, iron, copper, folic acid, vitamin B12, and vitamin C, including pig liver, egg yolks, lean meat, milk, fish and shrimp, shellfish, soybeans, tofu, and brown sugar. You can also take Wuji Baifeng pills and Ejiao Jiang for treatment.
There are many triggers that can lead to pediatric blood diseases. If a child is diagnosed with a blood disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should maintain a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
