A member asked:
7 months pregnant friday, anemic, and now taking feosol (ferrous sulfate) for iron deficiency. last week and a half i have had diarrhea. should i stop taking it?

Talk to your doctor.: The right answer to your question depends on a lot of factors, including how anemic are you, any other medical issues, what is causing the diarrhea, and how far along in your pregnancy you are. The person who is best position to help you make decisions is your obstetrician. I would call him or her to discuss the diarrhea and to figure out what to do next. Good luck.
