multivitamin with iron and fluoride (cont.)

What happens if I miss a dose?

Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the medicine at the next regularly scheduled time. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.

What happens if I overdose?

Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine. An overdose of this medicine can be fatal.

Overdose symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhea, drowsiness, fast heart rate, fainting, and seizure (convulsions).

What should I avoid while taking multivitamin with iron and fluoride?

Avoid using other multivitamins or mineral supplements that also contain iron. Getting too much iron can cause serious medical problems or death.

Avoid taking any other multivitamin product within 2 hours before or after you take multivitamin with iron and fluoride. Taking similar vitamin products together at the same time can result in a vitamin overdose or serious side effects.

Be sure that a child using this medicine is not taking in extra amounts of fluoride by swallowing toothpaste, or drinking water from sources that contain adequate levels of fluoride.
