Warnings

WARNING: Accidental overdose of Iron-containing products is the leading cause of fatal poisoning of children under 6. Keep this product out of reach of children. In case of accidental overdose, call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately. Folic acid alone is improper therapy in the treatment for pernicious anemia and other megaloblastic anemias where Vitamin B 12 is deficient.

Although the absorption of iron is best when taken between meals, giving PureVit DualFe Plus after meals may control occasional gastrointestinal disturbances.
