What is Ferotrinsic Used For? Iron is the major transporter of oxygen in the body. Vitamin C helps the body absorb the iron. Cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12) is important to the body for growth, cell production, blood and nerve function. Intrinsic factor enhances the absorption of Vitamin B12. This combination medication is used in the treatment of anemia or iron-poor blood.
How To Use Ferotrinsic
Take Ferotrinsic by mouth as directed. It may be taken with food or a meal if stomach upset occurs. Take each dose with a full glass (8 oz or 240 ml) of water unless your doctor directs you otherwise. Swallow it whole. Do not crush or chew. Do not lie down for 30 minutes after taking Ferotrinsic. Do not exceed recommended dosage.

Ferotrinsic is generally well tolerated. Constipation or stomach upset may occur. Notify your doctor if you experience vomiting, stomach cramps, or skin rash while taking Ferotrinsic. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
Ferotrinsic Precautions
Tell your doctor of any illnesses or allergies you may have. Ingestion of alcohol may increase the chance of stomach upset. Accidental overdose of iron-containing products can be very dangerous and even fatal. Keep Ferotrinsic out of the reach of children. If overdose occurs, call a doctor or poison control center immediately. Ferotrinsic should be used only if clearly needed during pregnancy. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor.

Ferotrinsic Drug Interactions

Avoid taking any tetracycline antibiotic within 1 to 2 hours of taking this since the iron component may interfere with the absorption of tetracycline. Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
