Accidental iron poisoning still represents a significant hazard in children less than 5 years of age. The problem is compounded by the attractiveness of dosage forms, their high availability, and ambiguities in product labeling. Manufacturers accentuate label ambiguity by not specifically designating the iron as being total elemental iron or iron compound. A list of products that contain iron has been prepared to help clarify this issue.
意外铁中毒在5岁以下儿童中仍然是一个重大危害。剂型的吸引力、铁剂的高可得性以及产品标签的模糊性使这一问题更加复杂。制造商通过不明确将铁指定为总元素铁或铁化合物来加剧标签的模糊性。已编制了一份含铁产品清单，以帮助澄清这一问题。
