Ferrous Sulfate
別名: Fer-In-Sol, Feosol, FeroSul, Fer-Gen-Sol
> **DANGER:** Iron overdose is highly toxic and potentially fatal. Keep all iron supplements strictly out of reach of pets and children. * **Purpose:** Used to treat iron-deficiency anemia, which is often caused by chronic blood loss (e.g., severe flea or hookworm infestations, bleeding ulcers) or to support red blood cell production in pets with kidney disease. * **Administration:** Absorption is best on an empty stomach (1 hour before or several hours after meals). However, if it causes stomach upset or vomiting, you may give it with a small amount of food. * **Side Effects:** Do not be alarmed if your pet's stool turns dark black; this is a normal, harmless side effect of unabsorbed iron passing through the digestive tract. * **Interactions:** Do not give at the same time as antacids, dairy products, or certain antibiotics (like tetracyclines or fluoroquinolones). Separate doses by at least 2 hours.
劑量必須由獸醫按你寵物的個別情況決定。切勿在沒有獸醫指導下給予人類藥物或其他寵物的處方藥。

給藥方式
可能的副作用
- Mild gastrointestinal upset (nausea, vomiting)
- Black or dark-colored feces (normal and harmless)
- Constipation or diarrhea
注意事項與禁忌
- Hemosiderosis
- Hemochromatosis
- Hemolytic anemias
- Known hypersensitivity to iron products
- Gastrointestinal ulcerative diseases (relative contraindication due to GI irritation)
- **WARNING:** Dosing of oral iron products can be confusing. Always verify whether the dose is for the iron salt (e.g., ferrous sulfate) or elemental iron. Use with caution in patients with GI ulcerative diseases due to the irritating properties of the drug. Large doses can color feces black, causing false-positives on guaiac tests for occult blood.
藥物相互作用
- Antacids: May bind to iron and decrease oral absorption; administer at least two hours apart.
- Calcium (Oral): May bind to iron and decrease oral absorption; administer at least two hours apart.
- Chloramphenicol: May delay the response to iron administration; avoid using in patients with iron deficiency anemia.
- Fluoroquinolones (e.g., enrofloxacin): Iron may significantly reduce the absorption of oral fluoroquinolones; administer at least two hours apart.
- H2-Receptor Antagonists (e.g., famotidine): Increased gastric pH may decrease iron absorption.
- Penicillamine: Iron can decrease the efficacy of penicillamine by decreasing its absorption; space doses as far apart as possible.
- Proton-Pump Inhibitors (e.g., omeprazole): Increased gastric pH may decrease iron absorption.
- Tetracyclines: Oral iron preparations can bind to orally administered tetracyclines, decreasing the absorption of both compounds.
- Thyroxine: Iron may reduce the absorption of oral thyroxine; administer at least two hours apart.
- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid): May enhance the gastrointestinal absorption of iron.
