Suggest An Alternative Of Niferex
My husband, Charles, was operated on 26 oCT 2016 (Biopsy) and he is in a wheelchair always. He s been told that he s slightly anemic. Our Insurance does not cover iron pills at all. Our family Dr. prescribed iron pills Niferex) which cost $238.00 for 30 pills. We cannot afford it as we have very little income. Is there any other alternative? Cecelia
