IRON ADVICE

Does anyone know how long a gap I need to leave between taking my thyroxine/ T3 and my dispersible Iron supplement?

I know they clash so I was wondering

I really want an iron infusion. Can I pay for this? Does anyone have any leads?

Thanks all.

4 hours between iron and thyroid meds, two hours between iron and any other supplement/medication.

No idea about paying for an iron infusion , sorry.

Are you sure you are getting enough vitamin c. Lack of it can impair iron absorbtion
