[quote=Anonymous]DD's doctor prescribed Integra, a high dose iron supplement. But by the time we got it, DD's iron level had gone from low 20s to mid 50s just by using over the counter iron supplement. So doctor said don't use the Integra. Now Fe level is low 90s with the over the counter supplements. This seems to mean that it's possible to get Fe up using OTC. If that doesn't work for your kid over the course of a few months then maybe there's an issue with iron retention and more aggressive supplements/infusions might be warranted. [/quote]
