DRUG INTERACTIONS No Information provided Warnings & Precautions WARNINGS ACCIDENTAL OVERDOSE OF IRON-CONTAINING PRODUCTS IS A LEADING CAUSE OF FATAL POISONING IN CHILDREN UNDER 6 YEARS OF AGE. PRECAUTIONS Folic acid alone is improper therapy in the treatment of pernicious anemia and other megaloblastic anemias where Vitamin B is deficient. Folic acid in doses above 0.1 mg daily may obscure pernicious anemia in that hematologic remission can occur while neurological manifestations progress. General Do not exceed recommended dose. The type of anemia and the underlying cause or causes should be determined before starting therapy with NuFera™. Since the anemia may be a result of a systemic disturbance, such as recurrent blood loss, the underlying cause or causes should be corrected, if possible. Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness in pediatric population have not been established. Geriatric Use In general, dose selection in elderly population should be cautious and start at the lower end of the dosing range. Overdosage & Contraindications OVERDOSE The clinical course of acute iron overdosage can be variable. Initial symptoms may include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, tarry stools melena, hematemesis, hypotension, tachycardia, metabolic acidosis, hyperglycemia, dehydration, drowsiness, pallor, cyanosis, lassitude, seizures, shock and coma. CONTRAINDICATIONS NuFera™ is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients. Hemochromatosis and hemosiderosis are contraindicated to iron therapy.
