For once daily self-applied systemic use as a dental caries preventive in pediatric patients. It has been established that ingestion of fluoridated drinking water (1 ppm F*) during the period of tooth development results in a significant decrease in the incidence of dental caries. Fluoride Chewable Tablets were developed to provide systemic fluoride for use as a supplement in pediatric patients from 6 months to 3 years of age and older living in areas where the drinking water fluoride content does not exceed 0.6 ppm F*. Fluoride Chewable Tablets 1.0 mg are contraindicated when the fluoride content of drinking water is 0.3 ppm F* or more and should not be administered to pediatric patients under the age of 6 years. Do not administer Fluoride Chewable Tablets (any strength) to pediatric patients under age 6 months.

DESCRIPTION

inactive ingredients: croscarmellose
sodium, FD&C Yellow No. 6 aluminum lake, magnesium stearate, mannitol,

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Sodium fluoride acts systemically (before tooth eruption) and
topically (post eruption) by increasing
tooth resistance to acid dissolution, by promoting remineralization,
and by inhibiting the cariogenic
microbial process.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
For once daily self-applied systemic use as a dental caries preventive
in pediatric patients. It has been
established that ingestion of fluoridated drinking water (1 ppm F*)
during the period of tooth
development results in a significant decrease in the incidence of
dental caries. Fluoride Chewable
Tablets were developed to provide systemic fluoride for use as a
supplement in pediatric patients from
6 months to 3 years of age and older living in areas where the
drinking water fluoride content does not

exceeds 0.6 ppm
