What are some well-tolerated alternative iron supplements for a pregnant patient who experiences vomiting after taking Livogen captabs?

Asked by Female, 26 · 15 days ago

Nausea is a very common side effect of certain iron types, like ferrous fumarate, during pregnancy. Please rest assured we can find a gentler option for you. You might tolerate generic iron polymaltose complex, ferrous ascorbate, or carbonyl iron much better, as they are typically gentler on the stomach. Sometimes, taking your supplement with a small meal or right before bed can also help reduce nausea. Please discuss these generic alternatives with your obstetrician to find the safest and most comfortable option for you and your baby.
