How should I use Multi Vitamin and Fluoride?
Supplementation of the diet with nine essential vitamins.
Supplementation of the diet with fluoride for caries prophylaxis. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children up to age 16, in areas where drinking water contains less than optimal levels of fluoride, receive daily fluoride supplementation. Multivitamin and Fluoride Supplemental Drops 0.5 mg provide fluoride in drop form for infants and young children 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 3-6 years, in areas where the drinking water contains 0.3 through 0.6 ppm of fluoride. Each 1.0 mL supplies sodium fluoride (0.5 mg fluoride) plus nine essential vitamins.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommended that infants and young children 6 months to 3 years of age, in areas where drinking water contains less than 0.3 ppm of fluoride, and children 3-6, years of age, in areas where the drinking water contains 0.3 through 0.6 ppm of fluoride, receive 0.25 mg of supplemental fluoride daily which is provided in a full dose (1mL) of Multi Vitamin and Fluoride Supplemental Drops 0.25 mg. A half dose (0.5mL) of Multi Vitamin and Fluoride Supplemental Drops 0.5 mg could also provide a daily fluoride intake of 0.5mg; however, the dosage reduces vitamin supplementation by half.
Multi Vitamin and Fluoride Supplemental Drops 0.25 mg and Multi Vitamin and Fluoride Supplemental Drops 0.5 mg drops supply significant amounts of vitamins A, C, D, E, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pyridoxine, and cyanocobalamin 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, infants and children obtain nine essential vitamins and fluoride.
A comprehensive 5-1/2 year series of studies of the effectiveness of multivitamin, iron, and fluoride drops in caries protection has been published. Children in this continuing study lived in an area where the water supply contained only 0.05 ppm fluoride. The subjects were divided into 2 groups, one which used only the non-fluoride vitamin product, and the other, multi-vitamins-fluoride products. Children in this continuing study lived in an area where the water supply contained only 0.05 ppm fluoride. The subjects were divided into 2 groups, one which used only non-fluoridated vitamin product and the other, multi-vitamins-fluoride products.
The three-year interim report showed 63% fewer carious surfaces in primary teeth and 43% fewer carious surfaces in permanent teeth of the children taking multi-vitamin-fluoride products.
After four years, the studies continued to support the effectiveness of multi-vitamin-fluoride products, showing a reduction in carious surfaces of 68% in primary teeth and 46% in permanent teeth.
Results at the end of the 51/2 years further confirmed the previous findings and indicated that significant reductions in dental caries are apparent with the continued use of multi-vitamin-fluoride products.
1.0 mL daily or as prescribed by physician. May be dropped directly into mouth with the enclosed dropper or mixed with cereal, fruit juice, or other food.

What are the precautions of Multi Vitamin and Fluoride?
The suggested dose should not be exceeded since dental fluorosis may result from continued ingestion of large amounts of fluoride. When prescribing vitamin fluoride products:
- Determine the fluoride content of the drinking water.
- Make sure the child is not receiving significant amounts of fluoride from other medications and swallowed toothpaste.
- Periodically check to make sure that the child does not develop significant dental fluorosis.
- Multi Vitamin and Fluoride Supplemental Drops 0.5 mg 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.)
What are the side effects of Multi Vitamin and Fluoride?
Allergic rash and other idiosyncrasies have been rarely reported.

Clinical Information
Chemical Structure
No Image foundClinical Pharmacology
It is well established that fluoridation of the water supply (1 ppm fluoride) during the period of tooth development leads to a significant decrease in the incidence of dental caries.
Hydroxyapatite is the principal crystal for all calcified tissue in the human body. The fluoride ion reacts with the hydroxyapatite in the tooth as it is formed to produce the more caries-resistant crystal, fluorapatite. The reaction may be expressed by the equation:
Three stages of fluoride deposition in tooth enamel can be distinguished:
Non-Clinical Toxicology
As in the case of all medications, keep out of reach of children.Because tetracyclines have been shown to depress plasma prothrombin activity, patients who are on anticoagulant therapy may require downward adjustment of their anticoagulant dosage.
Since bacteriostatic drugs may interfere with the bactericidal action of penicillin, it is advisable to avoid giving tetracyclines in conjunction with penicillin.
Absorption of tetracyclines is impaired by antacids containing aluminum, calcium, or magnesium, and iron-containing preparations.
Absorption of tetracyclines is impaired by bismuth subsalicylate.
Barbiturates, carbamazepine, and phenytoin decrease the half-life of doxycycline.
The concurrent use of tetracycline and Penthrane® (methoxyflurane) has been reported to result in fatal renal toxicity.
Concurrent use of tetracycline may render oral contraceptives less effective.
The suggested dose should not be exceeded since dental fluorosis may result from continued ingestion of large amounts of fluoride. When prescribing vitamin fluoride products:
Allergic rash and other idiosyncrasies have been rarely reported.
