  • What Ferrograd is and what it is used for

    Ferrograd is an iron supplement. Iron is critical (essential) for your body to produce normal blood red cells. Ferrograd is formulated with an inert porous matrix (Gradumet) to release iron gradually and reduce (limit) the gastro-intestinal irritation occurring with iron supplements.

    Warnings and precautions

    • Before taking this tablet speak to your doctor if you suffer from bowel strictures (resulting in difficult intestinal transit) as the inert core tablet may not be suitable for you. • Ferrograd is not recommended for children under 12 years old. Acute iron poisoning is a serious risk in the paedriatic population. • Due to the risk of mouth ulceration and tooth discolouration, tablets should not be sucked, chewed or kept in the mouth but swallowed whole with water. If you cannot follow this instruction or have difficulty swallowing, please contact your doctor. • Your stools may turn black whilst taking Ferrograd. If you have a test for the detection of blood in your stools, tell your doctor you are taking Ferrograd as black stools may cause an incorrect result to the test.

Do not use Ferrograd after the expiry date which is stated on the carton and on the edge of the strip of tablets.
