Vegan friends iron complex gummies helped normalize my kids hemoglobin. The prescription iron did nothing. It might be trial and error to figure out what works for your kid.
Sleeping and feeding problems are common with anemia and should resolve with improved iron levels. Long term anemia can cause brain damage and developmental issues. Feel free to pm me about my experiences, anemia is one of my favorite topics lol.

This helps AFTER iron levels have stabilised. Supplements are necessary to correct the deficiency.
Often the person's body can only digest iron when certain other vitamins are available at the same time.

Can you share which vitamins are precursors to iron absorption? Thanks!

Lots of them. My particular child needed b3 b6 b12 b5 vitamin C and zinc. Some people have different mutations and different complexes work for them. Some people just need the vitamin C and zinc.
