Hi I have recently been prescribed ferrous fumerate for iron deficiency anaemia. I’m having big problems tolerating it, as it reduces the effectiveness of my PD medication my about 50%.
Help. Has anyone else experienced this problem any advice would be appreciated.
Hello, my wife started ferrous fumigate 8 days ago and is now getting muscle aches and pains. We have separted the daily dose 2 hours away from the parkinsons medication as the instructions received with the FF stated they could react with PD meds.
So did you ever receive further advice on the FF vs PD meds?
regards, Jenny & Max
Hello Jenny_Hunt,
Thanks for your query. Our forum members may be able to offer you some peer to peer advice on this, however we do strongly recommend you speak to your wife’s GP or Parkinson’s professional regarding this for a full medical assessment.
All the best
