PULVIS FERRI ET QUININAE CITRATIS EFFERVESCENS Meaning and Definition

  1. Pulvis ferri et quininae citratis effervescens is a Latin term that refers to a specific medical preparation commonly known as "effervescent iron and quinine citrate powder." This therapeutic compound consists of a combination of ingredients, primarily iron and quinine citrate, which are finely ground into a powdered form and designed to dissolve in a liquid with the release of gas bubbles or effervescence.

    Iron, an essential mineral, plays a crucial role in the production of red blood cells and the transport of oxygen throughout the body. Quinine citrate, on the other hand, is a medication derived from the bark of the cinchona tree and is widely used as an antimalarial drug.

    The effervescence aspect of this preparation is an added feature that enhances the administration and consumption of the powder. When combined with water or any suitable liquid, the powder undergoes a chemical reaction, producing carbon dioxide bubbles. This effervescence helps to mask any potential unpleasant taste or texture, making the solution more palatable for ingestion.

    Pulvis ferri et quininae citratis effervescens is commonly used in the treatment of iron-deficiency anemia and cases where supplementation of both iron and quinine is required. Its effervescent nature aids in rapid dissolution and easier absorption by the body. However, it is important to note that this medication should be taken strictly under medical supervision, as both iron and quinine have specific indications, contraindications, and potential side effects that need to be considered before use.

  2. Effervescent powder of citrate of iron and quinine; chalybeate tonic in dose of a heaping teaspoonful, gr. 90 (6.0).
