My 15 year old daughter has been diagnosed anaemic & prescribed iron tablets. She has been taking them for 10 days but seems no better, if anything she seems even more tired. How long before we see an improvement? Or should I take her back to the doctor?
It takes an average of a month for iron efficiency anemia to start improving repeat her tests after one month of treatment and if still there is no improvement the need to perform hemoglobin electrophoresis to determine the cause
