Burns, makes me sick.
Recently started taking this. Tastes awful, burns my throat and tongue a little bit, makes me feel sick to the point where I almost threw it back up. Doesn’t help.
Purchased in March 2021 at Chemist Warehouse for A$10.99.

Liquid iron causes teeth to blacken!
Unfortunately, the Fabiron packaging does not warn the user to rinse teeth after ingesting liquid iron. It blackened my teeth, which I then had treat with peroxide until my teeth returned to their natural colour.

Sachets leaks
This is a great product, I use it for my iron deficiency, easy to suck and taste good.
But I recently bought the sachets, the packaging is not strong enough, it just leaks.
( ah! My new bag!!)

Poor packaging
I bought these individual packs to take on holidays. The packaging is weak and just leaks out. Not a good option

Great
I have been taking the FAB IRON tablets (gentle on stomach) for a few years now, I have found them to be great.
I used to be Anaemic low blood but since taking these tablets I iron levels are back on track.
These are gentle on the stomach as well.

Has sodium benzoat as preservatives E211
Just recently I found that the taste quite differently until I found out it contains sodium benzoat and i researched that if mixed with vit C Ascorbic can be DNA damager or cause carcinogen cancer
Not sure what to do as I really need this supplement and had been using it for years please look into it thank you

Used to be good
I was taking the liquid daily until very recently. They changed the recipe and it burned my throat and caused reflux. Utterly disgusting taste and it was obvious immediately. Have now switched to a much better brand.

Life changing
I have been using this for years now. The effect was almost instantaneous and life changing. I used to feel very tired weak and lethargic. Pre pregnancy i always thought how I'd cope with pregnancy and a child. But these pills really give you the energy. On holidays i forgot to take them and a week later i could feel the tiredness and lethargy back. I experienced absolutely no side effects. 2 pregnancies later i think my energy level is phenonenal :). Highly recommended.

Worthwhile Iron Supplement
Uses an easily digestable form of iron that doesn't cause digestive upsets, which can be a problem with other iron supplements. Has additional B vitamins to elevate energy levels. Cost effective way to increase iron levels. Capsules are derived from vegetable origin making them suitable for vegans and vegetarians as well.
Easy to digest, effective and reasonably priced.

Excellent
Reasonably priced, product that if taken daily will help improve iron levels whilst restoring energy levels and making you feel great.
The combination of chelated iron with vitamin B complex makes you feel great without some of the common side effects typical to iron supplements
Nothing really

If you have an iron deficiency you will feel hungry because your body is trying to get you to eat more and hopefully get some iron. This is probably how your appetite is supposed to be!

Hi Amit, I don't think the time of day matters but it should be taken on an empty stomach.

I found this a safe and effective way of taking Iron, with the added benifit of Zinc, Vit C, B 12. I also found that these tablets suppressed my appetite which is a great bonus.
