Iron Supplement

Uses

Uses
Iron supplements are used to treat or prevent low blood levels of iron, such as for anemia or during pregnancy

Warnings
Iron containing products should only be taken for very specific reasons and only under the advice and supervision of a doctor. Consult your doctor, for guidance for iron supplementation.

Do not exceed recommended dosage.

Warning:
Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children younger than 6 years of age. Keep this product out of the reach of children. In case of accidental overdose, call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.

Do NOT use if

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Ferrous Sulfate Elixir
  • you have high levels of iron in your blood

Ask a doctor or pharmacist before use if

  • pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
  • you are taking any prescription or over-the-counter medicines

Since oral iron products interfere with absorption of oral tetracycline antibiotics, these products should not be taken within two hours of each other. Occasional gastrointestinal discomfort (such as nausea) may be minimized by taking with meals. Iron containing medications may occasionally cause constipation or diarrhea, and may cause temporary staining of the teeth. Mixing Ferrous Sulfate Elixir with water or fruit juice may help to decrease the effects.

Do not take Ferrous Sulfate Elixir within 1 hour before or 2 hours after antacids, eggs, milk, milk byproducts, coffee, or tea.

Keep out of reach of children.
