Ms. lybrate-user, no need to worry. Taking these tablets together will do no harm. Preferably you should take folic acid in the morning and ferrous sulphate 30-45 minutes after lunch. You can take lemon juice with ferrous sulphate. No tea, coffee and milk atleast before or after 2 hours after ferrous sulphate.
