Iron: Feosol Vs. Fergon
I'm not familiar with either of these "brand names", but my surgeon told me just to be certain I was taking ferrous fumeerate rather than ferrous sulfate, the more commonly available form. I get mine from the Kroger pharmacy, made by Mission Pharmaceudicals. I get three bottles of 100 for about ten dollars.

Don't bother with the slow release stuff. (boo kitty)
Ferrous Fumerate is mild (constipation/upset stomach) and I take it on an empty stomach (no caffeine, calcium beforehand either) and with some Vit C for max absorption.
I take Vitron-C and I cru**** to make sure it hits the guts right away for max absorption. No need for time for it to break down.
