Why Is FeroSul Prescribed While Suffering From Liver Infection?

Ny 62 hr old nephew has had major major surgery to unclog a clogged artery to his lower intestine (bowel) and he got infection in his liver and kidneys - in hospital again for over a week - whatever they did had to keep him sedated for 3 days to keep him quiet. He is now home and one of his meds is Ferosul . Can you tell me what this is for?
