A member asked:
I had a multivitamin+iron with my yoghurt, i looked up online and im seeing a lot of bad things about consuming the pill with dairy, about not fully absorbing it, but is that all or will it genuinely cause any harm to me?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Harm is not the issue here -- only whether enough iron will be absorbed to be effective. From now on, avoid dairy for an hour or so before and after each iron dose, then no worries.
