Is it normal to feel sick to my stomach, throw up, and feel weak after taking Orofer XT for iron deficiency, and should I stop taking this medication and contact my doctor?
It is very common to experience stomach upset, nausea, and vomiting when taking iron supplements like Orofer XT (ferrous ascorbate). Feeling weak can also be a symptom of your underlying iron deficiency. While these side effects are frequent, please do not stop your medication without speaking to your doctor first. They can offer helpful solutions, such as taking the supplement with a small meal or adjusting the dose to make it gentler on your stomach.
