I know you can get over the top drugs such as Vitamins and Iron is one of those over the top drugs and I was wondering if it would be ok if I took iron pills even though I havent seen a doctor? I don‘t see how it would be harmful considering there sold over the top. The reason why I want to take them is because my symptoms match the symptoms of anemia perfectly.
Iron pills would be OK as long as you don't exceed the recommended dosage. The amount of iron in a multivitamin is very small so iron pills would be better if you are deficient in iron.
It would be much better if you consider taking a good multi vitamin instead of taking an iron pill (some thing like Centrum is great) Iron pills are naturally OK but in some cases they can poison you if it is high in iron concentration. There fore a good multi vitamin is great because it has some thing of every thing which your body needs (meaning all the essential vitamins and minerals) I am anemic and my doctor lets me take this multi vitamin cause iron pills tend to make my tummy ache
