Uses

This multi-nutrient supplement combining iron, lysine, B-complex vitamins, zinc, and other minerals is indicated for the prevention and treatment of iron-deficiency states, nutritional deficiencies, and to support general health, energy, and immune function. It is commonly used in children, pregnant women, and individuals with poor dietary intake.

Do not use if

Contraindicated in patients with hemochromatosis or other iron-overload disorders. Should not be used in those with known hypersensitivity to any component. Use with caution in patients with peptic ulcer disease.

Side effects

Iron may cause gastrointestinal side effects including nausea, constipation, dark stools, and abdominal cramping. Zinc in high doses can cause nausea and interfere with copper absorption. B-vitamins are generally well tolerated at supplemental doses.

Warnings

Keep out of reach of children; accidental iron overdose is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in young children. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Iron absorption may be reduced by concomitant intake of antacids, calcium, or tetracyclines.

How it works

Iron is essential for hemoglobin synthesis and oxygen transport. Lysine enhances intestinal iron absorption and participates in carnitine synthesis. B-complex vitamins support erythropoiesis and energy metabolism. Zinc is a cofactor for over 300 enzymes and supports immune function and wound healing.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C away from direct sunlight and moisture.
