Can Iron Tablets Leads To Pain And Irritation During Urination?
Hi, I have just started iron tablets yesterday and since then when I urinate it feels uncomfy, not a bad pain but irritates and kind of senseitive feeling, is this normal ? I've had bloods done and urine test in the last week and all was clear except I had no iron.
Hello dear, Iron tablets can cause dark stools,but not pain on urination. Your symptoms are most likely from urinary tract infection(normal urine test one week back cannot rule out infection today).So it is better to repeat urine routine examination,and take antibiotics if needed. Meanwhile,you take plenty of oral fluids. Taking enough green leafy veges and fruits,dates etc can pick up your hemoglobin level. I hope you will find this information useful.Thank you.
