Dosage Regimen

The method of application and dosage regimen for a specific drug depend on its form of release and other factors. The optimal dosage regimen is determined by the doctor. It is necessary to strictly adhere to the compliance of the dosage form of a specific drug with the indications for use and dosage regimen.

Take one tablet orally once daily.

Administer the tablet after a meal to improve tolerability and absorption.

Swallow the tablet whole with a sufficient amount of water; do not crush or chew.

The duration of administration is determined individually based on clinical need.

This regimen is indicated only for adults.

Do not exceed the recommended daily dose of one tablet.

Avoid concomitant use with other vitamin A or D-containing preparations due to the risk of hypervitaminosis.

  • Hypersensitivity to the components of the preparation.

Overdose

Symptoms: nausea, weakness, gastrointestinal disorders. In case of overdose, the patient should consult a doctor.

Treatment: oral administration of activated charcoal, gastric lavage, symptomatic therapy.

Drug Interactions

The preparation contains iron and calcium, therefore, when used concomitantly with antibiotics of the tetracycline group, as well as antimicrobial agents – fluoroquinolone derivatives, the absorption of the latter from the gastrointestinal tract is slowed down.

Ascorbic acid enhances the action and side effects of antimicrobial agents from the sulfonamide group.

Antacid preparations containing aluminum, magnesium, calcium, as well as cholestyramine, reduce the absorption of iron.

With the simultaneous use of thiazide diuretics, the likelihood of hypercalcemia increases.

It is not recommended to use Vitrum® concomitantly with preparations containing vitamins A and D, as this increases the risk of overdose of these vitamins.

Storage Conditions

The preparation should be stored out of the reach of children, in a dry place at a temperature from 10°C (50°F) to 30°C (86°F).

Shelf Life

Shelf life – 5 years.
