A member asked:

I was told by my gi dr. to take 3 ferosul daily. it says on the bottle not to exceed 2 pills in 24 hrs. i am nervous. is it safe to take 3 a day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pharmacist: Ask your pharmacist this question. Since only a small percentage of the iron is absorbed, I don't think that 3 a day would be a problem especially if you're significantly iron deficient. I have prescribed iron supplements 3 times a day on many occasions in iron deficiency patients. Be sure to take these with food.
