IRON LADY
Take one capsule a day, or as advised by a healthcare professional. For best absorption, take Iron Lady on an empty stomach in the morning with a full glass of water, or with food if that is gentler on your stomach. If taking it fasted, wait 30 to 60 minutes before having coffee, tea or food.
Avoid taking Iron Lady at the same time as tea, coffee, soft drinks or dairy products. Also avoid taking it at the same time of day as calcium-containing supplements, such as Nurture and Embrace, because calcium can reduce iron absorption.
Recommended daily amount
1 capsule
15 mg iron. Take with a full glass of water.
Iron Lady is designed to be taken alongside your Venja daily pack if your iron needs are higher. This may include:
If you are unsure whether you need extra iron, ask a healthcare professional. A blood test can assess your iron status.
One capsule, containing 15 mg of iron, covers 100% of the recommended daily intake for women aged 18 to 50 according to NNR 2023. If a healthcare professional has recommended a higher dose based on a blood test, up to four capsules a day may be taken. Any dose above one capsule a day should always be set by a doctor or midwife.
How long to take Iron Lady depends on why you are taking it. For an ongoing need, such as heavy periods or endurance training, it can stay part of your daily routine for as long as the need is there. If it was recommended after a blood test, follow your healthcare professional's guidance. Iron status is generally reassessed with a follow-up blood test after 3 to 6 months.
