A member asked:
My doctor prescribed me iron supplements twice a day & prenatal vitamins once a day. can i take all 3 of them together or i should give sum hours gap?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends.: Prenatal vitamins contain iron as well usually. You may take them all together, but you may have less stomach upset if they are taken separately with food. Iron absorption is increased with vitamin C and decreased by minerals, tea, coffee, and cocoa.
