- Directions
- INDICATIONS AND USAGE: TRI-VIT with FLUORIDE 0.25 mg drops may be useful for infants whose diets are lacking in vitamins A, D and C. TRI-VIT with FLUORIDE 0.25 mg drops also provide fluoride for caries prophylaxis. TRI-VIT with FLUORIDE 0.25 mg (vitamins A, D, C, and fluoride) drops were developed to provide fluoride in drop form for infants and young children from 6 months to 3 years of age in areas where the drinking water contains less than 0.3 ppm of fluoride and for children ages 3 to 6 years in areas where the drinking water contains 0.3 through 0.6 ppm of fluoride.
- TRI-VIT with FLUORIDE 0.25 mg drops should be dispensed in the original plastic container, since contact with glass leads to instability and precipitation. (The amount of sodium fluoride in the 50-mL size is well below the maximum to be dispensed at one time according to recommendations of the American Dental Association.)
- DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION: 1 mL daily, or as prescribed. May be dropped directly into mouth with dropper, or mixed with fruit juice, cereal or other food. USE FULL DOSAGE. DISPENSE in original container
- See box for dosage information and complete listing of ingredients. Save box for future use.
- DISPENSE in original container.
- Warnings
- DO NOT USE IF TAMPER-EVIDENT SEAL UNDER CAP IS BROKEN OR MISSING
- WARNING: As with all medicines, keep out of the reach of children.
- When prescribing TRI-VIT with FLUORIDE 0.25 mg drops: 1) Determine the fluoride content of the drinking water from all major sources. 2) Make sure the child is not receiving significant amounts of fluoride from other sources such as medications and swallowed toothpaste. 3) Periodically check to make sure the child does not develop significant dental fluorosis.
- ADVERSE REACTIONS: Allergic rash and other idiosyncrasies have been rarely reported.
