Vitamins And Iron Daily Dose

I currently have to take my vitamins, iron and calcium twice a day, but the doctor has put me on new iron/frolic acid tablets that are 305g , but he never stated if I had to have these once or twice a day.

It is a high dose of iron so I don't know if I should take 2 a day, how much does everyone else take ???

Omg! I been forgetting my iron oops. I knew I was forgetting something. I have 30mg bariactric advantage brand. I should be taking twice a day.

For me, because Iron constipates me terribly, my doctor has me take iron every other day. It is supposed to be once a day, but if I do that, I'll be lucky to poop once every two to three days!

my superpower is......

I would call your doctor and ask him how much he wants you to take instead of guessing. You don't want to take the incorret dosage.
