What Causes Outbreak Of Acne And Heart Palpitations While On Iron Supplements?
taking iron supplements right now and i have never had acne but I am very broken out and i have boils on my skin is that normal with high doses of supplement iron? Also have dandruff...its all around the same time as taking iron? Are they related? My acne is so bad I am considering stopping the iron but I get heart palpitaions from severe iron deficency anemia.
