Hi there,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic,

Gastric irritation is even common with iron salts.Asyou are already been suffering from heart burn and indigestion,your problem becomes bigger.

Dont be scared by keeping un-necessary stuff in your mind,as you are already clarified by doctors about your heart condition.

consult a gastro-enterologist to solve your problem better.

regards,
Dr.SIVAYOGI.
