Calcium phosphate and Iron phosphate are for mineral supplementation.

• Combines calcium phosphate and iron phosphate in a single tablet.
• When prescribed by a healthcare professional C.P.I.P. is generally well tolerated at the recommended dose and may be prescribed for infants, children, pregnant and lactating women, and the elderly.
• The easy-to-swallow tablet can be halved or crushed to facilitate low-dose prescribing for infants and children.

Prescribing Information
Calcium and phosphate are essential for growth and development and are incorporated into bone, teeth and red blood cells. Iron is a component of haemoglobin and phosphate forms part of ferritin. Calcium is needed to support growth and development. Both calcium and iron are needed for healthy blood maintenance.

• Growth and development: Calcium plays a key role in mitotic division, the process in which cells divide and the growth process occurs. It is needed in increased quantities during times of rapid growth or cell turnover, including childhood, adolescence and pregnancy.
• Phosphate is an essential element in all human cells and, like calcium, is necessary for normal growth and development, and required in increased amounts during times of growth.
• Haematology: Due to its role as a component of haemoglobin, iron plays a vital role in the structure and function of healthy blood.
• In the body, iron is found most commonly associated with phosphate, the main anion for energy storage and release.
• Phosphate acts as a regulator of iron phosphate absorption, and forms part of ferritin, the iron storage complex. It is also incorporated into 2,3 diphosphoglycerate (2,3 DPG, a compound in red blood cells that regulates oxygen release by haemoglobin), and consequently plays an integral role in energy production.
• Calcium is involved in red blood cell production.
