Directions for Use

Give ferrous syrup to your child as directed by your pediatrician, following the age-appropriate dosage on the product label. Use the measuring spoon or syringe provided to ensure accurate dosing. Mix with a small amount of juice or water if your child finds it difficult to take straight. For best absorption, give with food or a light meal to reduce stomach upset. Dark stools are a normal side effect.

Storage and disposal

Store Wafer syrup in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach of children to prevent accidental overdose, as iron can be dangerous in excess. Do not use after the expiration date. Dispose of unused syrup according to local pharmacy guidelines.

Quick Tips

  • Use the measuring spoon or syringe for accurate dosing
  • Dark stools are normal and harmless
  • Space iron intake 2 hours apart from other medications
  • Include vitamin C-rich foods to enhance iron absorption

Dosage

Overdose

Iron overdose in children can be serious and requires immediate medical attention. Symptoms may include severe nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark stools, and pale skin. Seek emergency medical help immediately.

Missed a Dose

Give the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume the regular schedule. Do not give double the dose.

How does this medicine work?

Ferrous iron is easily absorbed in the digestive tract and incorporated into hemoglobin and myoglobin in red blood cells. This enables the production of healthy red blood cells and supports oxygen transportation throughout the body.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Inform your child's doctor about all medications your child is taking. Iron may reduce the effectiveness of certain medications. Space iron intake at least 2 hours apart from other medications.

Interactions with food items

Give ferrous syrup with a meal or light snack to improve absorption and reduce stomach upset. Avoid giving with coffee, tea, or dairy products immediately as they may reduce iron absorption. Vitamin C-rich foods enhance iron absorption.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Dark or black stools are a normal and harmless side effect of iron syrup, indicating that iron is being eliminated through the digestive tract. This does not mean there is any problem.
The duration depends on your child's iron levels and the cause of anemia. Your pediatrician will determine the appropriate duration based on blood test results.
