other: Corvite Fe is a professionally prescribed hematinic multivitamin/multi mineral dietary supplement wed to improve the nutrition status of patients with iron deficiency; this includes women prior to conception throughout pregnancy, and in the postnatal period for both lactating and non-lactating mothers.
warning: Contraindications
Corvite Fe should not be used by patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the listed ingredients. All iron compounds are contraindicated in patients with hemochromatosis, hemosiderosis, or hemolytic anemias.
Precautions
General: Do not exceed recommended dose. The type of anemia and the underlying cause or causes should be determined before starting therapy with Corvite Fe. Since the anemia may be a result of a systemic disturbance, such as recurrent blood loss, the underlying cause or causes should be corrected, if possible.
Folic Acid: Folic acid alone is an improper therapy in the treatment of pernicious anemia and other megaloblastic anemias where vitamin b12 is deficient. Folic acid in doses above 0.1 mg daily may obscure pernicious anemia in that hematologic remission can occur while neurological manifestations remain progressive.
warning: Allergic sensitization has been reported following both oral and parenteral administration of folic acid.
warning: The patient's medical conditions and consumption of other drugs, herbs, and/or supplements should be considered.
warning: Pediatric Use: Safety and effectiveness in pediatric population have not been established.
warning: Drug Interactions
There is a possibility of increased bleeding due to pyridoxine interaction with anticoagulants (e.g., aspirin, heparin, clopidogrel).
