Abstract
Anemia control has hitherto been through prophylaxis with weekly iron folic acid (IFA) in Indian women of reproductive age (WRA). Recently, a more precise approach has been proposed, that uses a 'screen and treat with IFA' approach for anemic WRA, combined with continued prophylactic IFA in non-anemic WRA. The efficacy of this approach was assessed in Indian WRA, along with changes in iron status biomarkers.
