A member asked:
Do you know is weight loss a side effect of taking ferrous gluconate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Although I was not: Able to find weight loss as a specific potential side effect for ferrous gluconate, it can cause: v appetite, nausea/ vomiting, abdominal cramps etc. It would be safe to assume that there would be potential for weight loss in one of those scenarios.
