A member asked:
Can taking ferrous gluconate (elemental iron) and fluticasone propionate (flovent hfa inhaler) simultaneously be harmful?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: As long as you swallow the iron well before or after to inhale the Flovent (so you don't choke on the iron tablet), you should be fine. There is no drug interaction.
