Our Story

“What began in my small compounding pharmacy on Vancouver Island more than 20 years ago has grown into the preferred solution for preventing and treating iron deficiency anemia across the country.”

I am pleased to announce that after 20 years of clinical experience and thousands of successfully treated patients, Bob’s Iron Formula is now available at drugstores throughout the country as FERAPRO®, an iron blend that is evidence based, clean, sustainable, and continues to be gentle, yet exceedingly effective—as it has been for the last two decades—at treating and preventing iron deficiency.

What began in my small compounding pharmacy on Vancouver Island more than 20 years ago has grown into the preferred solution for preventing and treating iron deficiency anemia across the country. Despite the high prevalence and significant health and economic impact of iron deficiency anemia, this condition has remained inadequately addressed and continues to be a significant public health problem worldwide.

Our mission is to empower anemic patients through meaningful education and by offering a clinically proven, science-based, effective, and well-tolerated iron supplement that will deliver results and improve their quality of life. FERAPRO® will set a new standard for oral iron supplements and how practitioners treat iron deficiency anemia in Canada.

We invite you to reach out to us with your questions, and I wish to personally THANK YOU for taking this journey with us.

Sincerely,

Bob Mehr, B. Sc. (Pharm), RPh, FIACP
CEO and President
