Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion there will be many types of iron preparations .So if you are intolerant to fefol-z the change of preparation might help you.So discuss regarding that with your doctor.If you are intolerant to all oral preparations then iv preparations might be given.Take iron rich diet.Dont worry.
