This should be discussed with your doctor or midwife/health visitor. Not all women are given iron during pregnancy, so rather than self medicate, discuss it with your health professionals/pregnancy care team.

What is the difference between ferric sulfate and ferrous sulfate?

Ferric sulfate contains trivalent iron cations and ferrous sulfate contains divalent iron cations. As a consequence of this, they have different ratios of iron to sulfur or oxygen and other different properties.


What is the color of a ferrous sulfate solution while heating?

A ferrous sulfate solution typically appears colorless or pale green. When heated, the color may change due to oxidation reactions, resulting in a yellowish color or possibly forming a brown precipitate.


What dose of ferrous gluconate in mg is equivalent to ferrous sulphate prescribed?

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


Is ferric carbonate the same as ferrous sulphate?

No, ferric carbonate is a compound containing iron in its +3 oxidation state, while ferrous sulfate is a compound containing iron in its +2 oxidation state. They have different chemical compositions and properties.


How do you separate Lead nitrate from ferrous nitrate?

sulfuric acid. Dilute sulfuric acid will react with both lead and ferrous nitrate when dissolved in water producing-: nitric acid, ferrous and lead sulfate. Ferrous sulfate is very soluble in water and lead sulfate is only slightly soluble and so the lead sulfate should pretty much precipitate out of the solution. This method will not completely separate the lead from the iron; however, Its a start. And also you can keep boiling down the solution of the 2 salts until pretty much most of the lead sulfate is separated from the iron sulfate. But if it were me , because of the poisonous nature of lead compounds, I would not want to use this as a source of iron.

What is the difference between 210mg ferrous fumerate and 200mg ferrous sulphate?

The main difference between ferrous fumarate and ferrous sulfate is the type of iron salt they contain. Ferrous fumarate contains ferrous iron bound to fumaric acid, while ferrous sulfate contains ferrous iron bound to sulfuric acid. Ferrous fumarate is often considered to have better absorption and fewer gastrointestinal side effects compared to ferrous sulfate.


IS Ferrous sulfate the same as folic acid?

No, ferrous sulfate and folic acid are not the same. Ferrous sulfate is a form of iron supplement, while folic acid is a B vitamin that helps the body make new cells. Both are important for overall health but serve different functions in the body.

Is ferrous sulfate the same as pantoprazole?

No. Ferrous Sulfate is Iron. It will help if a person is anemic (not enough iron in their blood stream) Pantoprazole is the generic of Protonix which is for stomach/intestinal issues (Gerd/ Acid Reflux)


Is ferrous sulphate a sulfa drug?

No, Sulfa drugs are a class of antibiotics such as Septrum-DS and Bactrim. Ferrous sulfate is a form of iron as opposed to ferrous gluconate. Both forms of iron are used to treat anemia. Of the two, ferrous gluconate is less constipating than ferrous sulfate.

Is ferrous sulphate more reactive than silver nitrate?

Ferrous sulfate is more reactive than silver nitrate because it contains iron, a transition metal that readily undergoes redox reactions, whereas silver nitrate is a stable compound. Ferrous sulfate can act as a reducing agent in certain reactions, while silver nitrate is commonly used as a reagent in silver-related processes.
