If tab as elemental iron 100mg absorption varies... 80 to 90 percentage Hb produced still less out of that So iron supplements usually 3 months so there is proper replenishment

Depends on the method of administration. Absorption in body is different than utilisation of it to repair the deficiency and getting symptoms relief will take further more time. However advisable to take one tab a day. Kindly consult to know further.
