Best time to take Exjade?

Hi All,

I have been taking Exjade for the last 3 months- usually I take it in the morning, first thing after I wake up, then wait for 30 min. and have breakfast. Have others taken it at other times during the day? Any differences seen?

Also, I have noticed a loss of appetite- and cannot be sure whether this is due to the medication, or not. Have others had a loss of appetite?

I am being monitored by monthly blood work, and will see how effective Exjade is....I am a thal intermedia.

Blessings

Hi Kitkat,
Ive been on exjade for about 8 months now & i take mine in the mornings also and wait 30mins before eating breakfast.
I also only dilute it with 50mls orange juice as this is how it was prescribed by my doctor.I havent had any problems with
taking it in the mornings.But i know some people have had stomach issues & have taken it at night instead,some other
members maybe able to shed some light on it for you.take care
