How much Carbonyl Iron can be taken in a 24 hour period?

Last week my hemoglobin dropped to 5.8, I was then given 3 units of blood it then went up to 8.8. I was taking 375mg of carbonyl Iron w/Vit. C + 12mg of Proferrin ES Heme Iron daily at different times before I bottomed out. I need to get my levels back up. Does anyone know how much is to much of each of these would be the maximum in a 24 period? I don't want to have to have another transfusion or do I want to take to much iron either. Thanks Cindy
