WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN. In case of an accidental overdose, call a doctor or a poison control center immediately. Tell your doctor if you have: kidney problems or thyroid disease. This medication should be used as directed by your physician during pregnancy or while breast-feeding. Consult your doctor about the risks and benefits. Folic acid alone is 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 progress. There is evidence that the anticonvulsant action of phenytoin is antagonized by folic acid. A patient whose epilepsy is completely controlled by phenytoin may require increased doses to prevent convulsions if folic acid is given.
ADVERSE REACTIONS Allergic sensitization has been reported following both oral and parenteral administration of folic acid. Call your doctor if you experience any of the following rare but possible signs of hypervitaminosis D: nausea, vomiting, constipation, loss of appetite, increased thirst, increased urination, mental/mood changes or unusual tiredness. You should call your doctor for medical advice about serious adverse events. To report adverse side effects or to obtain product information, contact Solutech Pharmaceuticals LLC, at 1-877-829-3135
