[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.Your wife is suffering from anemia. It is mostly due to iron deficiency. So your doctor prescribed iron tablets. Response of oral iron therapy is slower. It will take some time for her iron level to become normal. Don't worry about that. Just continue with the treatment. She will get benefits within few weeks. Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health
