Hi,My platelate count is around 6lacs n blood test shows iron deficiency. Dr advised me to take livogen 1 hr before lunch n dinner. Sometimes it happens I couldn t take before lunch. Can I take after lunch. How much time will it take to reduce the level of platelets.
Hi, Raised platelet counts are often seen in iron deficiency anemia. It takes about 2 months for hemoglobin to normalize after you have started iron replacement therapy. If you find it difficult to take Limoges before food, it is OK to take it after food. There is some reduction in absorption when you take it along with or after food, but is fine. You have to take iron tablets for total of 6 months. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help. With regards,
