Question

Why can't you take iron and calcium at the same time?

Answer 1

Iron is absorbed the best on an empty stomach. Yet, iron supplements can cause stomach cramps, nausea, and diarrhea in some people. You may need to take iron with a small amount of food to avoid this problem. Milk,calcium and antacids should NOT be taken at the same time as iron supplements

the supplements work best on an empty stomach, you may want to take them with food so that they don't upset your stomach. You shouldn't take iron supplements with milk, caffeine, antacids, or calcium supplements.
