Doctor recommended it for iron deficiency (325 mg) I had been taking Geritol vitaminsI understand it can cause constipation, which I can't handle again.
As has already been said, try loosening your straps, but in all honesty the only thing that worked for me when I used the masks that have contact with the nose are the gel pad's, which is why we started to import them for UK sufferersWe do also have the CPAP Moisture Therapy Cream too on the website, which is safe to use on the masks as it contains no substances to damage itI now use the Respironics FitLife Mask which has no contact on the bridge of the nose, so I don't need the gel pads anymoreYou may find your clinic stocks this mask, so it's worth askingGood luck!
constipation is the usual side effect and you can regulate that two waysIf it begins to happen reduce the amount of iron you take, like less tablets per day, and also drink at least 5-6 glasses of water daily.Pasta has soluble fibre that also keeps the bowel regular.
