My doctor prescribed ferrous sulfate 325mg. i have below avg iron levels. i ask for treatment for my acne. will taking this help, fix both problems?

No: Your acne needs to be addressed separately. If topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerable has not cleared you in a few weeks, get with your physician to add something that will. The oral contraceptive pill may help with both. Spironolactone is a great acne Rx for a woman. Best wishes
