 Topic: Iron Melts
Posted: 09 June 2007 at 7:35pm |

I just thought Id let everyone know about Iron Melt tablets, they are chewable so its great if u cant swallow pills like me! Thye have Folic Acid in them which is really good and vitamin B12 and Vitamin C and of course, Iron.
Ive started taking them as of yesterday and I felt really good today.
Everyone probably knows about them but I thought there might be some members that dont. They are only $10 aswell so its a great price!

Yip they are yummy 
Sheza, you might want to check the folic acid dosage in them as I have a feeling it may be below the recommended dosage in pregnancy (I could be wrong  )

Yes I've had these too and they are great. Although further through your pg you may need a higher dose of iron - or so I found. But definitely good for the first 1/2 pg or so.

yeah Kaz iron melts prob wont work, cause my levels were jsut lower than yours and they arent a high enough dosage for me.
Im on ferrograd aswell.
But ferrograd will boost your levels up in no time, they def do work.

Yup, I am on ferrogradC too. But those melts sound good for maintaining iron levels at other times!
