Hemocyte® F is indicated in pregnancy for the prevention and treatment of iron deficiency and to supply a maintenance dosage of folic acid.   Contraindications Hemocyte® F is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients. Also, all iron compounds are contraindicated in patients with hemosiderosis, hemochromatosis , or hemolytic anemias. Pernicious anemia is a contraindication, as folic acid may obscure its signs and symptoms.   Adverse Reactions Ferrous fumarate has been implicated in some instances of gastrointestinal disturbances, including abdominal cramps, diarrhea, constipation, heartburn, nausea and vomiting. Reducing the dose and administering it with meals will minimize these effects in the sensitive patient. Increasing fiber in the diet can relieve constipation. Iron may turn stools black. This is a harmless effect that is a result of unabsorbed iron. Allergic sensitization has been reported following oral administration of folic acid.   Dosage Adults (persons over 12 years of age), one (1) tablet daily, between meals, or as prescribed by a physician. Do not exceed recommended dosage. Do not administer to children under the age of 12.   How Supplied Maroon film coated tablets debossed with "US" logo on one side.
