Pediatric patients: Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.

✔️ Interaction

Iron chelates with tetracycline. Since oral iron products interfere with the absorption of oral tetracycline antibiotics, these products should not be taken within two hours of each other. Occasional gastrointestinal discomfort may be minimized by taking it with meals. Absorption of iron may be impaired by concurrent administrations of penicillamine and antacid. In patients with renal failure, a risk of zinc accumulation may exist.
