4.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous product, HORRID packaging, July 12, 2007
This is the only iron product that many people--including me--can tolerate. It is substantially more expensive than many other iron preparations, but I don't mind paying extra to avoid the awful side effects associated with those. (AMAZON'S PRICE, however, was better than my local Wal-Mart or CVS.)

I DO MIND VERY MUCH that the manufacturer ignores customer reviews that talk about the terribly inconvenient packaging. Why should loyal customers who are willing to pay more for the product be subjected to trying to wrest these tablets from the packaging? Perhaps people with small children or mentally incompetent people in their households prefer such packaging, but why can't a plastic bottle be made available to the rest of us?

Thanks, Amazon, for friendly pricing. Boo-Hiss, Novartis, for your ongoing disregard of your customers' preferences.

Jayni Mosher.

3.0 out of 5 stars Be careful if you're diabetic, June 13, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
These are decent iron tablets but be careful if you're diabetic. My wife took these and for a while she was getting unexplained peaks in her blood sugar overnight. When she stopped taking the supplement, the peaks also stopped. Turns out that lactose is one of the top ingredients.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a very good product., August 28, 2005
I had a hemoglobin level of 8. A rather dangerous low level of iron. I ordered the tablets. I had been taking a different brand. But, after, starting on these, I felt much better. I have not had my levels drawn again. But, they have made a difference in how I feel.
