Richar CR and Richar CR 100 are iron supplements used to treat or prevent anaemia during pregnancy. The difference is mainly the strength of iron in the tablet, and the higher dose may sometimes cause stomach upset or vomiting. Taking the tablet after food and with plenty of water may help reduce this problem. Consult your doctor if vomiting continues so the medicine or dose can be adjusted safely during pregnancy.

Experiencing black stool is a very common and completely harmless side effect of taking iron supplements like Richar CR (ferrous ascorbate and folic acid). When your body processes the iron, the unabsorbed portion is safely excreted, which naturally darkens your stool. This is absolutely normal and nothing to worry about. However, if you ever experience severe abdominal pain, persistent nausea, or notice actual red blood in your stool, please reach out to your doctor.

It is safe and very important to continue taking Calcimax (calcium) and Richar CR (iron) as prescribed. These supplements support your baby?s developing bones and healthy blood supply. By missing this month's visit, you might delay routine third-trimester checks, such as the gestational diabetes screening, blood pressure monitoring, and a check on your hemoglobin levels. Try to arrange a teleconsultation with your obstetrician to discuss these screenings. If possible, monitor your blood pressure at home and track your baby's active movements.
