Hi,
It is claimed that Protonix doesn't have iron related side effects.
Even if this is true you can cure iron deficiency anemia by taking iron for 3 months. You can use vitamin c for better absorption.Don't do it for less than 3 months because it is not effective.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
