What Causes Diarrhea After Overdosing On Ferrous Sulfate
I double dosed myself on iron for four days last week, 325 ferrous sulfate and a multi vitamin with daily dose as well. Last dosage taken on Thursday. On Saturday I became ill with chronic bowel movements and little nausea, no vomiting. Stools were dark/green tint, formed but not tarry . It s Sunday and feel better but no energy and head is a little foggy. Should I go to emergency room?
