Re: iron supplements causing diarrhea - kinda freaking out
Side effects of Galfer tablets/solution as per the BNF:
Constipation; diarrhoea; epigastric pain (dose related); faecal impaction; gastro-intestinal irritation; nausea (dose related)
Definitely sounds like this is happening to you, not anything else sinister! See your doctor for further advice.
Good luck
Also should clarify - Galfer is the brand we use in the UK. It doesn't matter if you don't take Galfer - its only a brand. Side effects are related to the active ingredient, not brand.
