What is Tricon?

Tricon is a brand-name prescription iron and vitamin supplement to treat iron-deficiency or folate-deficiency anemia, both conditions in which the body does not have enough red blood cells to transport oxygen to the body's tissues. Both iron- and folate-deficiency anemia are caused by poor nutrition, pregnancy, or illness, but there may be other reasons, such as drug side effects.

Iron is the key element in hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells that “carries” the oxygen. Folic acid (vitamin B9 or folate) helps build red blood cells. When the body is deficient in vitamin B9, the body produces fewer red blood cells and the cells it does produce are larger than normal (megaloblastic anemia).

In addition to iron, Tricon includes vitamin B12 and vitamin C which are also vital to the body's production of red blood cells and the proteins, such as hemoglobin, that incorporate iron into their molecules.

Tricon has not been approved by the FDA as safe and effective.

What are the side effects of Tricon?

Common side effects of Tricon include but are not limited to upset stomach, stomach cramps, constipation, diarrhea, or black or bloody stools. Allergic reactions to carbonyl iron and the other nutrients in Tricon are extremely rare.

Although iron is a naturally occurring and critical part of our diet, overdosing on iron can lead to iron poisoning and even death. Always follow your doctor's instructions or the suggested dosage on the supplement.
