A member asked:
I was on 2 iron fumarate pills a day for a month and a half, and now i started getting symptoms like joints pain, what should i do?

Unrelated: Your joint pains are not due to the iron pills. It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you and if your symptoms persist for more than two weeks, it would be prudent to see your doctor.
