Folic acid (pteroylglutamic acid) is contraindicated in patients with untreated and uncomplicated pernicious anemia, and in those with anaphylactic sensitivity to folic acid. Iron therapy is contraindicated in patients with hemochromatosis and patients with iron storage disease or the potential for iron storage disease due to chronic hemolytic anemia (e.g., inherited anomalies of hemoglobin structure or synthesis and/or red cell enzyme deficiencies, etc.), pyridoxine responsive anemia, or cirrhosis of the liver. Cyanocobalamin is contraindicated in patients with sensitivity to cobalt or to cyanocobalamin (vitamin B-12).

Pernicious anemia should be ruled out before starting treatment. While folic acid corrects the blood picture of pernicious anemia, it does not ameliorate the attendant neurologic involvement.

Resistance to treatment may be due to depressed hematopoiesis, alcoholism, the presence of anti-metabolic drugs, and to deficiencies of vitamins.

Prolonged use of iron salts may produce iron storage disease.

Warning: Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6. Keep this product out of the reach of children. In case of accidental overdose, call a doctor or a Poison Control Center immediately.

Folic acid, especially in doses above 0.1 mg daily, may obscure pernicious anemia, in that hematologic remission may occur while neurological manifestations remain progressive. 

 
Allergic sensitivity reactions and gastrointestinal disturbances may occur.
Before, during and after pregnancy, chew or swallow one tablet daily, or as directed by a physician.
In all cases of suspected overdose, immediately call your regional poison center and/or contact a physician immediately. Symptoms of overdosage may be caused by hydrocodone or phenylephrine. Hydrocodone may cause the classic narcotic symptoms of coma, pinpoint pupils of the eyes, and/or depressed respiration. The treatment of choice is naloxone hydrochloride administered in small intravenous doses (consult specific product labeling before use). Symptoms of overdosage with phenylephrine include anxiety, tenseness, respiratory difficulty, throbbing headache and awareness of the slow forceful heartbeat. Treatment is similar to that of an overdosage of epinephrine.

Before, during and after pregnancy, chew or swallow one tablet daily, or as directed by a physician.

Hydrocodone bitartrate is a potent antitussive which causes suppression of the cough reflex by a direct action on the cough center. Hydrocodone is approximately three times as potent as codeine on a weight basis, but has a higher addiction potential also. Phenylephrine hydrochloride is a sympathomimetic amine which acts predominantly on alpha receptors and has little action on beta receptors. It, therefore, functions as an oral nasal decongestant with minimal CNS stimulation. Guaifenesin is an expectorant which exerts its action by stimulation of reflexes from the stomach and acts through the nauseant effect which increases the output from the secretory glands of the respiratory tract.

SELECT-OB™ is indicated to provide vitamin and mineral supplementation throughout pregnancy and during the postnatal period for the lactating and non-lactating mother. It is also useful for improving the nutritional status prior to conception.

SELECT-OB™: Contains 1 mg folic acid, which is very important in the development of the baby's spinal column during a specific period of time. Women are advised to start taking folate supplementation several weeks before conception and to continue taking them through the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, or longer. It is recommended that all women of childbearing years take folic acid supplementation.
