Description
Iron is used by the body to make red blood cells. Red blood cells contain hemoglobin which carry oxygen to all the tissues in your body. Without enough iron, your hemoglobin count will be low and the red blood cells will not be able to carry enough oxygen. You may feel tired or short of breath. This is often called iron deficiency anemia.Your doctor will check your blood to see if you have enough iron. If you do not, it is important to take iron supplements as prescribed to increase the iron in your blood. If you are taking erythropoietin (EPO), you may need to take extra iron even if you feel well because your body is now making more red blood cells and using up iron more quickly.
Directions:
Iron is absorbed best on an empty stomach (2 hours after a meal) and will bind to antacids and some medications. It is best to take all the iron tablets (or liquid) you have been prescribed all at once at bedtime. If the iron upsets your stomach, you can take it with a small non-dairy snack (but you will absorb less so try to take it on an empty stomach). If you are taking calcium supplements or other phosphate binders, be sure to space the iron at least 1 hour apart from these medications because they will bind the iron and prevent you from absorbing it.If you have other bedtime medications, check with your pharmacist to be sure it is all right to take them with the iron.
Caution
Too much iron can endanger children's lives. Always keep iron supplements out of children's reach! This includes multi-vitamins with iron, whether for children or adults. In certain situations some people may need iron supplements, but they are NOT recommended for everyone. Do not take iron supplements unless your doctor has prescribed them.
