    Objective: To determine the nutritional content of ferrous sulfate and dehydrated blood used in MINSA health centers for the treatment of anemia in children aged 6 to 35 months in Lima, Peru, in 2023, specifically in the San Juan de Lurigancho district of Lima. Methodology: This is a descriptive, cross-sectional, non-experimental study. Information was obtained from the nutritional composition declared on the ferrous sulfate label. Regarding dehydrated blood, the declared information on the product was reviewed, ensuring it is based on 100g of product. Results: It was found that ferrous sulfate contains only iron, with 300 mg in 100 g. Dehydrated blood contained iron, vitamin B9, vitamin B12, and vitamin A. With 11.5g of iron from dehydrated blood, the adequacy of 104% was met. Conclusion: It was determined that ferrous sulfate does not contain proteins, whereas dehydrated blood presents a good contribution according to the recommended dose for children aged 6 to 35 months.
