Brief Answer:
What is the problem that makes you unable to tolerate!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

Please, what is the exact symptom that makes you say you are unable to tolerate this? If this is so severe that it cannot be tolerated, we may resolve to regular infusions of iron into the veins. However, I will like to hear from you on what the exact problem is before making definitive statements on how to address them and what the way forward is.

I await your response and promise to get back to you as soon as possible. Until next, I wish you well.

Take this tablet with much water!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for these details.

It is advised to take this tablet with much water. This way most of the side effects would be minimized. Also, the side effects will reduce as you continue taking it with complete resolution in most cases within a week. I will suggest that you do these and let's see what happens before looking for alternative solutions.

I Wish you well.
