Who Advanced Iron Is For

  • Adults who need to help prevent iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia
  • People who find other iron supplements hard on the stomach
  • Anyone wanting iron with B2 and folic acid in the same capsule
  • People who want a flexible dose — 1 or 2 capsules a day
  • Those who prefer a vegetable capsule

Who this product is NOT for:

  • Children — keep out of reach; there is enough iron in this package to seriously harm a child
  • People already taking a prenatal multivitamin-mineral — combining them may cause constipation, diarrhea and/or vomiting due to high iron intake
  • Anyone who wants a liquid or chewable iron

Vitamart's Take

Advanced Iron is built around one thing most iron users care about: comfort. SunActive Fe is a form of ferric pyrophosphate designed to be highly absorbable and gentle on the stomach, and Progressive adds vitamin B2 to support absorption and folic acid for red blood cell formation. With 15 mg per capsule and a label dose of 1 to 2 capsules daily, you can adjust the amount as your health care practitioner advises. Take it with food, a few hours away from other medications and supplements.

How Advanced Iron Compares

Standalone iron vs. iron in a multivitamin

Progressive MultiVitamins For Active Women include iron as part of a complete daily multi. Advanced Iron is a dedicated iron supplement, so you can adjust your iron dose separately from your multi.

Advanced Iron vs. a prenatal multi

Progressive Prenatal already contains iron. The Advanced Iron label cautions that taking it with a prenatal multivitamin-mineral may cause constipation, diarrhea and/or vomiting due to high iron intake, so don't combine them unless advised.
