Hello. Constipation can be a side effect due to iron supplements. You can take vitamin c tablet along with iron tablet. Actually it is recommended to take iron supplement along with vitamin c tablet as vitamin c helps in absorption of iron. So you can easily take vitamin c tablet along with the iron tablet. Make sure you drink enough water (about 6-7 glasses) daily. It'll help with your constipation issue. Thank you. Stay safe stay healthy.
