This syrup is indicated for the treatment and prevention of iron, vitamin B complex and zinc deficiencies, especially during pregnancy and lactation.

Each 5 ml syrup contains:

• Iron (III) Hydroxide Polymaltose Complex equivalent to elemental Iron: 50 mg
• Thiamine Hydrochloride: 5 mg
• Riboflavin-5-Phosphate Sodium equivalent to Riboflavin: 2 mg
• Pyridoxine Hydrochloride: 2 mg
• Nicotinamide: 20 mg
• Zinc Sulphate Monohydrate equivalent to elemental Zinc: 10 mg

This syrup is a preparation of iron, vitamin B complex and zinc. In this preparation, iron is present as Iron (III) Hydroxide Polymaltose Complex. Iron (III) Hydroxide Polymaltose Complex facilitates controlled absorption of iron when it comes into contact with the mucosal cell surface. Due to its non-ionic nature, this Iron (III) Hydroxide Polymaltose Complex is more stable than conventional iron forms.

Adults: 5 ml-10 ml (1-2 teaspoonful) 3 times daily or as recommended by the physician.

Children: 5 ml (1 teaspoonful) 3 times daily or as recommended by the physician.

Infants: 0.33 ml/kg body weight daily or as recommended by the physician.

Since iron is complex-bound, ionic interaction with foodstuff components (phytates, oxalates, tannin, etc.) and concomitant administration of medicaments (tetracyclines, antacids) are unlikely to occur.

It is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients of this product.

This syrup is generally well tolerated. However, a few side effects of oral iron preparations, including nausea, vomiting, constipation or diarrhea, may occur.

Recommended in pregnancy and lactation.

Caution should be taken in conditions where there is a risk of iron overload, such as hemochromatosis, thalassemia, hemosiderosis or hemolytic anemia.

Recommended in children.

In case of overdose, epigastric pain, diarrhea, vomiting, metabolic acidosis and convulsion may occur. Emergency medical attention should be sought in case of overdose. Initially, an emetic should be given, and then gastric lavage and general supportive measures should be employed.
