Iron supplement should be taken after 1 hour of meals & after taking supplimemt, you should avoid taking milk, tea or coffee because they form a insoluble complex with iron & waste the suppliment. Iron suppliment should be taken with lemon water for best results. Calcium suppliment also be taken 1-2 hours of meal & water should be taken in rich quantity with it. You can take it in the morning.
