Directions
Adults: Take 1 tablet 1–3 times daily, or as directed by your healthcare professional. Best taken on an empty stomach, but may be taken with food if stomach upset occurs. Swallow whole with a full glass of water.
Caution: Iron supplements can interact with certain medications including antacids, antibiotics, and thyroid medications. Consult your pharmacist or doctor before use. Keep out of reach of children — accidental overdose of iron can be fatal.
Always read the label. Use only as directed. If symptoms persist, see your healthcare professional.
I ordered a small, rather insignificant item that I was unable to source in Australia. I was unsure whether I would ever see the item, with the unusual nature and low value.
Not only did it arrive, it arrived promptly and with a friendly cover note from Barbara.
