Hey everyone, I have a question to ask.
If one iron tablet contains 67.5 mg of elemental iron, how many can you safely take a day and how many is considered too much to the point it becomes toxic? I am about 100 pounds.
Thanks!

Have you had a blood test? If so best to follow up with the doctor who can help with this question.
First you need to know if you NEED it by your doctor checking your Hb level. Too high a level is dangerous and if it is high enough, you don't need more.
And then you take the recommended dose - everyone is different and even quite small doses can upset your gut.
