What is Ferrous Gluconate?

Ferrous Gluconate is an iron (“ferrous”) salt of iron used in over-the-counter and prescription iron, mineral, and multivitamin supplements. Ferrous Gluconate, like other iron salts, is both inexpensive and readily absorbed through the intestines and used by the body, making it an excellent dietary supplement.

Iron is a common mineral essential to the body's health and functioning. In addition to transporting oxygen in the red blood cells, iron compounds and proteins with iron are used throughout the body in vital cellular processes. A deficiency in iron will result in a shortage of red blood cells, or anemia, a potentially life-threatening condition that can occur in pregnant women, the elderly, the ill, or people suffering from poor nutrition. Iron supplements containing Ferrous Gluconate are prescribed or advised to people with or at risk for iron-deficient anemia.

What are the side effects of Ferrous Gluconate?

Common side effects of Ferrous Gluconate include but are not limited to upset stomach, stomach cramps, constipation, diarrhea, or black or bloody stools. Allergic reactions to the active ingredients are extremely rare.

Although iron is a naturally occurring and critical part of our diet, overdosing on iron can lead to iron poisoning and even death. Always follow your doctor's instructions or the suggested dosage on the supplement. Children are particularly vulnerable to iron poisoning, so Ferrous Gluconate and all other supplements should be kept safely out of their reach.
