iron supplements can interact with certain antibiotics such as tetracyclines cipro noroxin and levaquin. the type of antibiotic your daughter is taking determines whether the iron should be taken at a different time of day or not at all. your daughter may just need to stop taking the iron while she is taking the antibiotic and then continue with the iron once the antibiotic is finished. work with your pharmacist to make sure it is all right to take both.
