I began taking Slow Fe at age 40. It always worked well with no side effects. Now that the product has changed from the grayish pill to the red pill, it leaves me with terrible constipation. Is there any other product which is made in a similar manner to the way that Slow Fe was made in the past?
What has changed with Slow Fe? I've taken it for 18 years, but my body cannot tolerate the change?

Have you changed your dose, or changed your diet at all? Iron can make you constipated. It is a common side-effect. See:http://www.drugs.com/sfx/slow-fe-side-effects.html
How long have you been taking Iron for? You are best to talk about this with your pharmacist.
