Prescription for iron - anything I should know?

[Guest guest]

Doc is sending me a scrip for " Chromitin Fortase " - spelling may be

off since this is just how it sounded on the phone.

Does anyone have any experience taking prescription level iron? Any

contra-indications, etc?

Thanks,

Friday

Having done some googling, I believe the name of the supp she wants

me on is 'Chromagen Forte " .

It's advertised as being an absorbable, well-tolerated iron supp for

dialysis patients. Anyone tried it? The only tip I have so far is

to keep it away from my thryoid meds. I'll be doing it at bedtime,

probably, and the Armour sublingually.

Thanks,
