Chewable Iron - Anyone Taking

today my hematologist said i need to take (2) 325mg of ferrous sulfate which is equivalent to 65mg of iron. are there any chewables that contain that amount? i have surgery on 12/10 and figured i would just start with these instead of having switch after.

thanks!

    Ok. Looked at drugstore.com and the product is called Spatone pur-Absorb Iron. It does come as ferrous sulfate, and gives you 30% of your daily value.

That's the only thing I haven't been able to find in a chewable form.

I found some Iron that you can put in your Water at CVS pharmacy, but I haven't gotten it yet. Dr wants to look at my labs first to see how the chewable Vitamins are doing.

If you can't find it at a local store, maybe try drugstore.com (they have everything) or any website related to that (GNC and stuff like that).

I'm bored, so ill check on that too.

My doctor's office sales Bariatric Advantage chewable Iron but its only 60 mg. it's expensive though for 90 pills it cost me 27.00

Plan ahead. Iron supplements can cause upset stomach and constipation.

Bariatric Fusion sells chewable iron in the higher dosage. I'm on my phone at the moment, so I'm unable to link their site. Maybe if you Google them it will come up for you. Hope it helps.

There's one available from Vitamin Shoppe...berry flavored, and chewable. I take one twice a week, and quite like them.
