Pills containing iron supplements for pregnant women could be
fatal for small children, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention have warned. The agency said iron poisoning is
now the most common cause of child poisoning deaths in the
United States. As few as six pills - usually with a glossy red
or green sugar coating - could be fatal to a child weighing 22
pounds (10 kilograms) or less.
