FAQs
How does 18 mg compare with daily needs?
The US NIH lists 18 mg a day for women aged 19 to 50 and 8 mg a day for men and adults over 50, from all sources. One capsule matches the higher figure on its own, so it is worth checking your iron levels with your doctor first.
What is the upper limit for iron?
The NIH sets an upper limit of 45 mg a day for adults from food, drinks and supplements combined, although a doctor may prescribe more for a limited time. Avoid taking this with other iron supplements unless advised.
Can iron upset my stomach?
According to the NIH, high doses of iron, especially on an empty stomach, can cause an upset stomach and constipation. The label directs you to take this capsule with a meal. Speak with your doctor if side effects continue.
How is this different from the 36 mg capsule?
This capsule has 18 mg of iron. NOW Iron 36 mg is the double strength version with twice the iron per capsule, in a 90 capsule bottle. Both use Ferrochel ferrous bisglycinate.
