What should be considered?
Before you start taking Maltofer syrup, your doctor should measure the iron and blood pigment (haemoglobin) levels in your blood have been clarified by appropriate investigations. If the symptoms are not related to iron deficiency, Maltofer syrup will not be effective.
Your doctor would like to see the progress of your treatment through regular check-ups and may also want to carry out blood tests. This is normal and should not concern you. If your symptoms do not improve within 3 weeks, consult your doctor.
During treatment with Maltofer, the stool may turn dark, but this is not dangerous.
When should Maltofer Syrup not be taken/used?
- If you have a known hypersensitivity (allergy) or intolerance to the active ingredient iron( III)-hydroxide polymaltose complex or one of the excipients (see «What does Maltofer syrup contain?»)
- In the case of excess iron in the body (e.g. due to rare iron storage diseases which lead to iron deposits in the tissues)
- In the case of so-called iron utilization disorders (if the anemia is due, for example, to insufficient utilization of iron)
- In the case of anemia that is not due to an iron deficiency (e.g. due to increased hemoglobin degradation or lack of vitamin B12) .
When is caution required when taking / using Maltofer Sirup?
Inform before taking Maltofer your doctor, pharmacist or druggist if you have an infection or a tumor.
Tell your doctor, pharmacist or druggist if you have recently been treated or may be treated with injectable iron preparations. Such iron preparations should not be used simultaneously with Maltofer.
Tell your doctor, pharmacist or druggist if you have received blood transfusions as there is a risk of iron overload with supplemental iron.

How do you use Maltofer Syrup?
Maltofer Syrup should be taken during or immediately after a meal. It can be mixed with fruit or vegetable juices or with bottle feeding. The slight coloring affects neither the effect nor the taste. The enclosed measuring cup is used for precise dosing.
A measuring cup corresponds to a volume of 15 ml, corresp. 150 mg iron.
The daily dose can be taken all at once or divided into several individual doses.
Iron deficiency anemia:
Infants up to 1 year: 2.5-5 ml daily.
Children (1-12 years): 5-10 ml daily.
Adolescents from 12 years and adults: 10-30 ml daily.
Iron deficiency without anemia:
The syrup is not suitable for small children up to 1 year old. Maltofer drops are available to treat these children.
Children (1-12 years): 2.5-5 ml daily.
Adolescents from 12 years and adults: 5-10 ml daily.
The dosage and duration of treatment depends on the extent of the iron deficiency. For iron-deficiency anemia, treatment takes an average of 3-5 months for blood test results to return to normal. The treatment is then continued for several weeks with the dosage as described for iron deficiency without anemia in order to replenish iron stores.
For iron deficiency without anemia, treatment lasts about 1-2 months.
The doctor decides on the exact duration of treatment in each individual case.
If you have taken more Maltofer than you should, talk to your doctor, pharmacist or druggist. If you forget to take Maltofer, just take the next dose at the usual time. Do not take a double dose to make up for the missed dose.
Follow the dosage given in this leaflet or as prescribed by your doctor. If you think the medicine is too weak or too strong, talk to your doctor, pharmacist or druggist.
