Overview
•Provides 10 mg iron per 15 mL; use the measuring cap only and keep out of reach because accidental iron overdose can be dangerous for children.
•Iron liquids can cause nausea, abdominal discomfort, constipation or diarrhea, dark stools, and surface staining of teeth; rinsing the mouth after use is advised.
•Separate from levothyroxine, tetracycline or quinolone antibiotics, bisphosphonates, antacids, and mineral supplements because iron can reduce absorption in both directions.
•Avoid unsupervised use in iron overload disorders, thalassemia, repeated transfusions, or if a child has suspected anemia that has not been medically evaluated.
•Pregnant or breastfeeding adults should ask a clinician before using, especially if also taking prenatal vitamins or other iron-containing products.
•No major allergens are declared on the label, but fruit concentrates and natural flavors may be relevant for individual sensitivities.
