A member asked:

Is sideral forte safe during pregnancy? i was using ferrous sulphate but a gp told me to stop and gave me a prescription for sideral forte. should i use it? what are good pills for anaemia during pregnancy ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Iron supplement: Sideral forte is a rather expensive supplement that contains iron & vitamin C. I think it would be just as effective and less expensive if you took ferrous sulphate and vitamin C separately. Vitamin C enhances the absorption of the iron molecule which is more important if anemia is also present. Otherwise plain iron is fine during pregnancyCheck prices with your pharmacist.
