Directions for Use

DIRECTIONS: Fill dropper to prescribed level and dispense with a single firm squeeze of the dropper bulb.

Warnings & Precautions

DO NOT USE IF IMPRINTED SAFETY SEAL UNDER CAP IS BROKEN OR MISSING

WARNING: When a child or infant is taking iron, stools may appear darker in color. This is to be expected and should be no cause for alarm. When drops containing iron are given to young babies, some darkening of the membrane covering the baby's teeth may occur. This is not serious or permanent nor does it affect the enamel of the teeth. If this darkening or staining occurs, it may be removed by rubbing the baby's teeth once a week with a little baking soda on a small cloth.

Keep out of reach of children. This product contains iron, which can be harmful or fatal to children in large doses. In case of overdose, seek professional assistance or contact a Poison Control Center immediately.
