PRECAUTION:

Folic acid alone is improper therapy in the treatment of pernicious anemia and other megaloblastic anemias where vitamin B is deficient.

Do not take within 2 hours of taking oral tetracycline antibiotics, since oral iron products tend to interfere with absorption of tetracycline.

U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission requires that iron-containing medicine and vitamins with iron be packaged in child-resistant closures.
