Specializes in Internal Medicine

Not likely: Likely no serious concern as gummy bears don't contain iron, an overdose of which is the leading cause of poisoning related injury and death in children. Likely no serious concern regards the other ingredients with taking 8 Gummy Bears but**Call Poison Control for advice and reassurance: 1-800-222-1222. See: http://bit.ly/1Iv0O72
