About Floradix
Floradix is a well-known liquid iron supplement, providing iron in a gentle, easily absorbed form together with vitamins. It is a popular choice for topping up iron, particularly for those who find tablets hard on the stomach.
The range includes the original Floradix liquid, Floravital (a yeast- and gluten-free version) and Floradix tablets.

Frequently asked questions
How long does Floradix take to work?
Iron levels build up gradually, so it can take several weeks of daily use to notice a difference in your energy, and longer to replenish your stores. If you are being treated for low iron, follow your GP's guidance on how long to take it.
Does Floradix make you gain weight?
No, Floradix is a low-calorie liquid iron supplement and is not associated with weight gain. Any change in how you feel is usually down to improved iron levels rather than any effect on weight.
How much iron is in Floradix?
Floradix provides around 10mg of iron per 10ml dose, in a form designed to be gentle on the stomach. Check the label for the exact amount in your specific product.
How do you take Floradix?
Take the recommended dose, often 10ml once or twice a day, before meals, shaking the bottle first, and use it within the time stated after opening. Always follow the directions on the label.
Does Floradix cause constipation?
Floradix's liquid, lower-dose form is designed to be gentler than some iron tablets, so it is less likely to cause constipation, though iron can still affect some people. Drinking plenty of fluids can help.
Does Floradix help with anaemia and tiredness?
Iron contributes to normal red blood cell formation and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, which is why iron supplements are used to support low iron levels. If you have diagnosed anaemia, follow your GP's advice alongside any supplement.
Can you take Floradix before bed?
You can take Floradix at a time that suits you, though taking it before food, rather than right at bedtime alongside other supplements, can help absorption. Follow the timing guidance on the label.
