Medical Description

Paediatric Iron oral drops are used to prevent or treat iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anaemia in children when recommended by a healthcare professional. They contain iron, which supports haemoglobin and healthy red blood cell production.

Uses

  • Iron deficiency
  • Iron-deficiency anaemia

Contraindications

Do not use these drops if the child is allergic to iron or any other ingredient. Tell the child's doctor about repeated blood transfusions, anaemia not caused by iron deficiency, or any other long-term illness.

Side effects

  • Stomach discomfort
  • Nausea
  • Constipation
  • Dark stools

Directions for Use

Shake the bottle well before use. Measure the drops with the supplied device and give them only as advised by the child's doctor or pharmacist. Do not change the amount or use a household spoon.

Storage and disposal

Keep the bottle closed in its original pack and out of reach of children. Protect it from heat and direct light, and do not use it after the expiry date.

Quick Tips

  • This medicine is specially designed for use in children and should be used under adult supervision.
  • Use only the supplied measuring device and keep the bottle locked away after use.
  • Dark stools can occur with iron; tell the doctor if stomach symptoms are severe or persistent.

Dosage

Overdose

Iron overdose can be dangerous in children. If you think the child has received too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If a dose is missed, give it when remembered unless it is nearly time for the next dose. If it is nearly time, skip the missed dose. Do not take a double dose, and do not give an extra dose to make up for it.

How does this medicine work?

Iron helps the body make haemoglobin and healthy red blood cells. Restoring iron can support oxygen delivery to tissues when low iron is the cause of anaemia.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Tell the child's doctor about all medicines and supplements. Iron can interact with some antibiotics, antacids, and thyroid medicines, and the doctor may give separate timing instructions.

Interactions with food items

Milk, tea, coffee, and some high-fibre foods can reduce iron absorption. Follow the child's doctor's advice about food and drink rather than changing the treatment yourself.
