Overview

Slow Fe's 45 mg iron tablet uses a slow release formulation, packaged 60 to a bottle, and is labeled vegetarian and easy to swallow for people who need daily iron.

Iron supplements are notorious for causing stomach upset, and the slow release design here exists specifically to reduce that side effect by releasing iron gradually rather than all at once, which is likely why the listing pairs it with a digestive health benefit claim. At 45 mg it sits below some high-potency iron tablets, a dosing choice consistent with slow release products that favor gentler daily tolerance over a single large dose.

  • 45 mg iron per tablet
  • Slow release, high potency formula
  • 60 tablets per bottle
  • Vegetarian

Who it's for

Suited to people who need daily iron supplementation but have had stomach trouble with standard iron tablets in the past. Not the right pick for someone who needs a higher single dose to correct a significant deficiency, since 45 mg slow release is a moderate, gentler-dosed option.
