Customer Reviews of Slow Fe Slow Release Iron Tablets 90-Count Box
Customer Review: Easy way to take tablets out from the packaging
Summary: 4 Stars
Its too early to comment on the effectiveness of this pill, but I share the pain which everybody is feeling about the packaging of these tablets. While trying different ways to make it easier, I found a way which will ease your pain and make it very easy to remove tablets from its strip.
Take warm water in a bowl and dip the whole strip in the water for few minutes. Since packaging is water proof, tablets are safe. After few minutes, remove the strip from the water and start peeling the paper backing. The paper should be easily peeled off now in one piece and you'll end up with only silver foil backing which should bring smile on your face and no more fighting with the packaging :)
Once the paper backing is removed, wipe the strip dry and store it back in the box.
Customer Review: Low Iron?
Summary: 5 Stars
When my doctor suggested I try an iron supplement as my iron level has gotten quite low. I looked into it but did nothing about it. I heard all about the side effects of iron supplements and I was not having any of it. At my next annual check up, the doctor asked what iron supplement am I taking? I said, none. I am eating lots of "high in iron" foods instead. It was not a good answer. I'm not a big eater to begin with so what is "eating lots???" My iron level got even lower and I started to see the effect on my nails. The doctor recommended Slow Fe and it has worked for me with NO side effects, none what so ever! I feel great and the doctor is pleased with the results of my last blood work too. Thanks, Slow Fe.Customer Review: Simply works
Summary: 5 Stars
I had to start taking iron supplements several months ago due to pregnancy-induced anemia, and was so relieved to discover that my already-shaky stomach could easily handle these slow-release pills, even when my doc upped me to three pills a day.
Yes, the packaging is unnecessarily difficult to open. What we do is sit down once a month and open up the whole package worth, then we don't have to be bothered with it for another month.
Lastly, at my rate of 3 pills a day, I go through a 90-day box every month, so affordability was very important to me. Amazon's price, especially with the subscribe-and-save discount, was the best I could find on the web.
Customer Review: iron pill is NOT FOR EVERYONE
Summary: 1 Stars
i was told to take these for borderline anemia because these are supposed to be the best and least-upsetting to the stomach. well, after just taking it for two days, i had a terrible reaction to it, felt nauseated and could hardly eat for a week - i seriously thought i had iron poisoning or something. your body is supposed to be good at regulating iron level, so maybe it was just too much for me since my body was fine with my iron level.
this is supposed to be the best iron pill, but it definitely wasn't good for me. i highly recommend that you research and investigate before taking iron pills.
Customer Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm currently 6 months pregnant with twins and was told about 2 months ago that my iron levels were low so I needed to take a supplement. I asked my doctor if she had any recommendations and she specifically mentioned this one. I've taken it for a couple months now with positive results and I haven't had any adverse side effects that other iron supplements may cause. I agree, the packaging is a pain but I just take a sharp knife and cut the pill out... it literally takes me 5 seconds. Not a big deal. It is definitely worth the "extra effort" to me and my developing babies!
