Ferrous lactate is the iron(II) salt of lactic acid (CAS 5905-52-2, C6H10FeO6), typically supplied as the trihydrate and also recognised as the food-additive iron source E585. On elemental load it sits between the family's other organic-acid salts, at roughly 24% iron anhydrous and about 19% as the trihydrate, higher than ferrous gluconate but lower than ferrous fumarate. The iron is in the reduced +2 oxidation state and the salt is water-soluble. We manufacture it in powder, liquid and tablet formats.
