What is it used for?
Used to prevent or treat iron- and folic acid-deficiency anaemia and to supplement iron, folic acid and zinc when recommended by a healthcare professional.

How does it work?
Iron helps the body make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. Folic acid supports the formation of healthy red blood cells, while zinc supports normal body functions.

How to take/use it
Take only as directed on the label or by a healthcare professional. Swallow with water. If it causes stomach upset, taking it with food may help. Avoid taking it with tea, coffee, milk or antacids unless advised otherwise.

Common side effects
Nausea, stomach upset, constipation and dark-coloured stools. A metallic taste may occur.

Precautions
Do not take more than recommended. Keep out of the reach of children, as iron overdose can be dangerous. Tell a healthcare professional if there is a history of iron overload, stomach or intestinal problems, or if other medicines are being taken. Seek medical advice if severe vomiting, abdominal pain or an allergic reaction occurs.
