Interactions of Prenat CI

Carbonyl iron reduces the absorption of tetracycline antibiotics, quinolone antibiotics, levodopa, levothyroxine, methyldopa, and penicillamine. Folic acid interacts with antiepileptic drugs, so the plasma concentrations of phenobarbital, phenytoin, and primidone may decrease.

 

Contraindications

It is contraindicated for patients known to be allergic to any of its ingredients or iron overload.

 

Side Effects of Prenat CI

There may be gastrointestinal irritation such as nausea, anorexia, vomiting, malaise, constipation, and diarrhea. Patients may complain of dark stools. Carbonyl iron pills added to the capsule can reduce the chance of gastrointestinal irritation. There are very few allergic reactions.

 

Pregnancy & Lactation

If possible, avoid any medication during the first trimester of pregnancy. Therefore, taking iron in the first trimester requires definite evidence of iron deficiency. When the diet is insufficient and zinc and folic acid supplements are needed, iron deficiency prevention needs to be carried out during the rest of the pregnancy.

 

Precautions & Warnings

Patients with iron overload conditions such as hemochromatosis, hemolytic anemia, or red blood cell aplasia should be especially careful. Treatment failure requires further investigation to rule out other causes of anemia. In patients with renal failure, there may be a risk of zinc accumulation.
