I started having menstruation when i was 9 years old. After 2 years i was wondering why i missed my period. Then when i got to the doctor, the doctor told me i have a hormonal imbalance. Then she gave me some medication which is the Ferrous Gluconate. ## what happened after drinking Ferrous Gluconate? does it really help if you have hormonal imbalance? i also have the same concern but my OB-Gyne recommended me to take birth control pills like diane 35 or mercilon. ## My doctor ordered Ferrous Gluconate 325mg/36 elemental iron, and the pharmacy fills it with 324mg/37.5 elemental iron. The pharmacist says there is no difference between the two. Is she right?

I live in Indonesia and unfortunately, the labels here are not as complete as it would be in other countries. I am currently taking - 1. Sangobion (Ferrous Gluconate, Manganese, Sulfate, Copper Sulfate, Vit C, Folic Acid, Vit B, Sorbitol), 2. Enervon-C Multivitamins, 3. Evening Primrose Oil and 4. Levothyroxine. I think the EPO is gluten-free, but I am not sure of the rest. I would appreciate your feedback as I am new at this and I would hate to have gluten hidden in my vitamins / medicine while I avoid all the foods that I used to love. :( Thank you in advance!

drug study ## Sangobion is a nutritional supplement, it contains: Cyanocobalamin, Folic Acid, Manganese, Copper, Pyridoxone, Biotin, Nicotinamide, Riboflavin Thiamine and Ferrous Gluconate. Thus, it is actually not proven to help with anything. This means it is not a drug, therefore those types of studies have not been done for it. The only thing you could refer to are studies on the appropriate included supplements, if there are any available. ## im 38yrs old taking felez for dipression iwant to take sangobion bcoz i feel sometyms dezzy in luck of sleep.and i hve gastro so now this is advisible to me?to take this sangobion my family have anemic heredetary.

Can this be used by my wife ..She is Pregnant. Below is the description of the product. NUTRILITE Iron-Folic is a unique combination of Iron and Folic acid. Nutrilite Iron-Folic provides two of the best tolerated and well absorbed forms of iron (ferrous fumarate and ferrous gluconate), combined with folic acid in a base containing the exclusive Nutrilite Spinach Concentrate. ## Is she currently taking any other supplements? Was this prescribed by her doctor or have you spoken to them about her taking it? The reason I am asking is, because while Folic Acid or a Multi-Vitamin supplement are normally given during pregnancy to make sure the mother and baby both have enough nutrients, too much iron can be just as dangerous as not having enough. That said, this site is not medical professiona...

Why does Centrum Liquid vitamins get darker in color by the time of the last few doses?
