  • Initial therapeutic dose: 3-4½ teaspoonful daily in divided doses or as prescribed by the physician.

Side EffectsView
Therapeutic doses of iron may cause gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting. Although iron is better absorbed between meals, side effects can be reduced by taking it with or immediately after food. Continuous administration may sometimes cause constipation. Iron containing liquid medication may cause temporary staining of teeth (this is less likely when diluted).
ContraindicationsView
Iron therapy is contraindicated in haemachromatosis and haemosiderosis.It should not be given to patients receiving repeated blood transfusion or with anaemia not produced by iron deficiency.
PrecautionsView
Should be administered with caution when given to patients with iron storage or iron absorption disease, haemoglobinopathies or existing gastrointestinal disease.
InteractionsView
Absorption of iron salt and Tetracycline is diminished when taken concomitantly by mouth. If treatment with both drugs is required iron salt should be given 3 hours before or 2 hours after Tetracycline. Absorption of iron is also decreased in the presence of antacids or when taken with tea.
Storage ConditionsView
Keep below 30°C temperature, away from light & moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
