Iron rxn not rare: Allergic reactions to iron are not common but also not rare. They are seen sometimes in primary care practice. The real issue is that you're not likely allergic to iron, as it is an essential mineral and the basis of blood cells. You're likely to be allergic to a filler or buffer agent within the iron formulation. See your PCP for a consultation.
