Ask a question
Why is vitamin C added to chewable iron supplements?
Vitamin C assists your body in absorbing the iron. Each Ferrous + C Chewable tablet contains 70mg of ascorbic acid alongside 20mg elemental iron for this reason.
How much iron should a child take per day?
Children's iron needs vary by age and should be confirmed with a GP or pharmacist. Ferrous + C Chewable is suitable for children from age 4. Always follow the label directions and talk to your health professional before starting a child on iron.
Are chewable iron supplements gentle on the stomach?
Ferrous + C Chewable uses ferric pyrophosphate, gentler on the digestive system than standard ferrous sulfate, which is the form most commonly linked to constipation and stomach upset.
Can you take iron chewables with a multivitamin?
It is worth checking with your pharmacist first. Some multivitamins already contain iron, so combining them could push your total intake higher than intended. Spacing them apart by a few hours is generally sensible. If in doubt, ask your health professional.
What is the best way to give a child iron so it absorbs?
Take iron away from calcium-rich foods, tea, and coffee, which can reduce absorption. The vitamin C already included in Ferrous + C Chewable helps your body absorb the iron. Chew the tablet as directed and take it consistently each day for best results.
