Indications
This prescription chewable tablet is indicated for the prevention and treatment of vitamin and fluoride deficiencies in patients at high risk for dental caries and inadequate dietary intake of essential vitamins. It is specifically formulated to support normal growth and development, promote bone and dental health, and aid in the maintenance of overall metabolic and immune function.
Contraindications
Contraindications: This product is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children up to the age 16, in areas where drinking water contains less than optimal levels of fluoride, receive daily fluoride supplementation. Flotrex™ Multivitamin Chewable plus 0.5 mg Fluoride Tablets provide 0.50 mg fluoride in tablet form for children 6-16 years of age in areas where the drinking water fluoride level is less than 0.3 ppm.
Flotrex™ Multivitamin Chewable plus 0.5 mg Fluoride Tablets supply significant amounts of Vitamins A, C, D, E, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and folate to supplement the diet, and to help assure that nutritional deficiencies of these vitamins will not develop. Thus, in a single easy-to-use preparation, children obtain ten essential vitamins and the important mineral, fluoride. Children using Flotrex™ Multivitamin Chewable plus 0.5 mg Fluoride Tablets regularly should receive semiannual dental examinations.
The regular brushing of teeth and attention to good oral hygiene practices are also essential. Flotrex™ Multivitamin Chewable plus 0.5 mg Fluoride Tablets is a prescription product for the clinical dietary management of the metabolic processes of caries prophylaxis and provides supplementation of the diet with ten essential vitamins.
