Iron Deficiency - Supplements
SPATONE 100% NATURAL LIQUID IRON SUPPLEMENT
MARTIN & PLEASANCE DISTRIBUTED BY BRANDFOLIO
Presentation: Oral liquid sachets: 14s, 28s.
Active Ingredients: Each sachet contains 25mL Trefriw Wells mineral water equivalent to 5mg elemental iron as ferrous iron (Fe2+).
Approved Indications: A natural source of iron to aid in maintaining healthy iron levels.
Contraindications: People with haemochromatosis should not take iron supplements including Spatone.
Precautions: Do not exceed 4 sachets daily. Not to be used in children under 2 years of age without medical advice. Some foods and medications may
affect iron absorption so it is best to take Spatone on an empty stomach (at least 30 minutes before meals) for optimal absorption.
Adverse Effects: In clinical trials, the side effect profile of Spatone was comparable to placebo, thus gastrointestinal side effects like constipation, nausea
and bloating are unlikely. Liquid iron supplements may contribute to staining of teeth, however reports of this are rare with Spatone. May react
with substances like tannins (found in tea, coffee and chocolate) causing plaque discolouration. Regular brushing and professional dental care
may help. Drinking Spatone through a straw may minimize plaque contact.
Directions: Adults: Take the contents of 1-2 sachets daily. Pregnant woman: Take the contents of 2 sachets daily. Children 2-12 years: Take the contents of
1 sachet daily.
Price Band: $24.00-$38.00
