Iron tablet consumption
I am 22 weeks pregnant and was taking Richar Cr 100 mg tablets. Now I have changed the consulting gynec due to which the prescription has changed to cap softeron gold . But after having the new iron tablet my stools are no more black like it was when I was consuming richar. Does that mean the iron content is low? Should I switch back to richar. Please advisee

No it doesn't mean that the iron content is low
Blackening of stool is a side effect of iron supplements
Yes you can go back to richar
