Dosage form: capsule
Drug class: Minerals and electrolytes
Medically reviewed by Drugs.com. Last updated on Jul 21, 2023.
The recommended adult dose is 50 mg as zinc three times daily (See CLINICAL TRIALS).
Since 25 mg t.i.d. is also an effective dose in children 10 years of age or older or in women who are pregnant, it may be advisable to use a dose of zinc to 25 mg three times a day, as long as the patient is compliant with therapy. The dose can be raised to 50 mg t.i.d. if monitoring indicates a lessening of control (see PRECAUTIONS: Monitoring Patients).
Patients should take zinc acetate on an empty stomach, at least one hour before or two to three hours after meals. For additional information, see PRECAUTIONS.
