p.s. those are both over-the-countersome Iron versions are really hard on people's stomachs. I guess since he prescribed them, you may be stuck with them - but you could ask. I take carbonyl iron, and it's really easy on my stomach. A lot of people like heme iron, too, for that reason - but heme is pretty pricey.
Thank you for replying! I'll speak with my doctor on Monday!

According to the internet
Iron is absorbed the best on an empty stomach. Yet, Iron supplements can cause stomach cramps, nausea, and diarrhea in some people. You may need to take iron with a small amount of food to avoid this problem. Milk, Calcium and antacids should NOT be taken at the same time as iron supplements.
This link may be of some help.

hi everybody, I'm pre op and had my labs done and I am extremely anemic. My doctor prescribed 2 Iron pills(chewable), 1 in the morning and 1 at night. They are causing major stomach issues, cramps and nausea. Any suggestions to stop these awful stomach issues?

I am having a lot of trouble keeping my glucose levels down, it seems to be an on going problem, hence one of the reasons I'm getting the DS. I was wondering if anyone knows if it's high will he still do my surgery? 🙁
