Can too much iron cause hives?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: Oral supplementation of iron usually causes stomach and bowel upset if too much is taken. Since you have other allergies that are known, the hives are much more likely from something other than iron. Even antihistamines can be the cause of allergic reactions that may be severe, if one becomes sensitized to them.
