for 200mg elemental iron,how much quantity of ferrous sulfate will be taken.
The elemental iron is 5.4 mg
65 mg of elemental iron.
Ferrous gluconate provides 12% elemental iron. For example if you take 100 mg ferrous gluconate you will get 12% elemental iron. Similarly Ferrous sulphate provides 20% elemental iron and Ferrous Fumarate provides 33% elemental iron that is why ferrous fumarate is best supplement for iron deficiency specially in pregnancy and lactation. Reference: British Journal of Nutrition 2001.
Ferrous is a derivative of the latin word Ferrum, for Iron. Which is why iron on the periodic table is Fe. Ferrous is iron in a +2 state, and feric is iron in a +3 State. Ferrous sulfate is just FeSO4
Thirty three percent of a ferrous fumarate is retained in the form of elemental iron, so for a 90 mg dose, we'd take 33% of 90mg which equals 29.7mg of elemental iron.
it is the same answer because ferrous is metal and it is equivalent gmoubarak: that is incorrect, you have to see how much elemental iron both are equivalent to and dose them by elemental iron content. ferrous sulfate is 20% elemental iron ferrous gluconate is 12% elemental iron therefore 100 mg of ferrous sulfate is 20mg elemental iron, and 100 mg of ferrous gluconate is 12 mg elemental iron. You can then use this to calculate the conversion between the too. When dosing the two you have to use elemental iron need. Hope this helps. G.Moubarak PharmD

Iron(II) sulfate. Or the older formula name, Ferrous sulfate.
YES!!! As the name 'sulphate' suggests, there is a sulphur component. Ferrous sulphate has the formula FeSO4 . This formula tells us that there are: - 1 atom of iron(Fe) 1 atom of sulphur (S) 4 atoms of oxygen (O4) NB There is also a Ferric Sulphate ; formula ( Fe2(SO4)3) This formula tells us that there are ;- 2 atoms of iron (Fe2) 3 atoms (3 x 1) of sulphur 12 atoms (3 x 4) of oxygen .
100 mg ferrous ascorbate is = 14 mg iron (elemental iron is 14 %)
Iron (II) sulfate is the correct name for this compound. The Fe ion has a charge of 2 and so does the sulfate ion, so there is no subscript after them.

27mg of elemental iron per dose.
The formula for ferrous sulfate is FeSO4.6-7H2O. (Iron Sulfate + Water) (Iron, Sulfur, Oxygen, + Hydrogen, Oxygen) No, it does not contain carbon.
