What is Feogen Forte Used For? Iron is an important mineral used by red blood cells to carry oxygen through the body. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) improves the absorption of iron from the stomach. Feogen Forte is used as a dietary supplement to prevent or treat iron deficiency anemia.
How To Use Feogen Forte
Feogen Forte is usually taken once a day as directed. Do not exceed recommended dosage. Feogen Forte is best taken on an empty stomach, but may be taken with meals if stomach upset occurs. Take with a full glass (8 oz or 240 ml) of water unless your doctor directs you otherwise. Do not lie down for 30 minutes after taking Feogen Forte.
Feogen Forte Side Effects
Most people can take Feogen Forte with minimal or no side effects. Stomach upset may occur. Stools may appear darker in color due to the iron. Do not be alarmed. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
Feogen Forte Precautions
Do not take ferrous sulfate (iron) without consulting a doctor if you have: ulcers, colitis, intestinal disease. Feogen Forte should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. Feogen Forte is excreted into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
Feogen Forte Drug Interactions
Tell your doctor of all prescription and nonprescription drugs you may use, especially of: chloramphenicol, penicillamine, methyldopa, levodopa, cimetidine, quinolone antibiotics (e.g., ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin). Avoid taking iron at the same time as antacids or tetracycline antibiotics. Wait at least two hours between taking iron and an antacid or tetracycline. Eggs and milk decrease iron absorption. Coffee and tea that is drunk with a meal or 1 hour after a meal may also decrease iron absorption. Because ferrous sulfate can cause false results in tests for blood in the stools, tell the doctor or laboratory personnel that you take ferrous sulfate. Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
