Anemic. 300mg ferrous gluconate a day not helping after 10 months. 80-300 normal ferritin lvl - mine was 45. can i increase iron supplement dose?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: You may take iron supplement 2-3 times a day. Take it with food to prevent stomach upset. If that does not help you may need discuss with your doctor if you have malabsorption and may need iron replacement by injection.
