Overview

•Ferrous sulfate at 65 mg elemental iron daily may cause gastrointestinal side effects like nausea, constipation, and stomach pain in sensitive individuals.
•This dosage exceeds the 45 mg tolerable upper intake level, increasing risk of adverse effects; use only under medical supervision for diagnosed deficiency.
•Potential interactions with antibiotics (e.g., tetracyclines, quinolones), antacids, proton pump inhibitors, and calcium supplements that reduce iron absorption.
•Not recommended for children under 18 without doctor advice due to overdose risk; keep out of reach as iron poisoning is a leading cause of fatal child poisoning.
•Safe for pregnancy if deficient, but consult healthcare provider to avoid excess; contraindicated in hemochromatosis or other iron overload conditions.
