There are literally hundreds of brands of iron on the market and patients often complain that they do not get a particular brand prescribed in their area

There are many different iron compositions like ferrous sulphate,ferrous fumarate,ferrous bis glycinate,ferrous ascorbate etc etc

Confused with so many names?
Just look at the back of the strip where it will give the elemental iron in one tablet/5 ml syrup.

The RDA(recommended daily allowance)of iron,in pregnancy is about 30 mg per day of hemoglobin levels are normal.

If the patient is anemic,they will require about 60-120 mg per day depending on how low their iron levels are.

So if your hemoglobin is normal,
Look for any iron brand which gives 30 mg per day

If your hemoglobin level is low,look for any brand which gives 100 mg per day!

As the dose of iron increases,side effects like vomiting,constipation,gastritis will increase.
