Question:
Whenever I take my 2x26 mg ferrous fumerate capsules, I am increasingly

nauseated for the next several hours until I am able to "eliminate" it. At this point, excuse the bluntness, it smells like rust! Do I need to go through this every day? Is there a better form to take?    — Marti R. (posted on July 17, 2002)

Iron is very hard substance on the stomach no matter what. It is best taken with food and plenty of water. you can also try ferretts you can get them in any pharmacy over the counter, just ask you pharmacist they are the easiest iron on the stomach to digest.
