This medication requires careful consideration of safety and potential risks, particularly regarding iron content. Please review the following information diligently, and consult your healthcare provider with any concerns.

• Iron Overdose Risks: Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6 years of age. Keep this product out of children's reach. Overconsumption of iron can lead to serious health issues such as gastrointestinal tears, seizures, and liver damage. Regular blood tests are necessary to monitor iron levels if you are taking multivitamins with iron. Be vigilant for symptoms of excess iron, including nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, and diarrhea. Key risk factors include taking too much iron, undergoing multiple blood transfusions, and having medical conditions that elevate blood iron levels.

• Contraindications: This medication should not be used by individuals with conditions that cause high iron levels, such as hemochromatosis. If you have such conditions, consult with your healthcare provider before use.

• Emergency Actions: In the event of an overdose, seek immediate medical assistance or contact a poison control center.

Adhering to these precautions can help mitigate potential risks associated with this medication. Always follow the guidance of your healthcare provider.
