My son has adhd and started taking Iron tablets once a day because I heard that iron defficiency is sometimes a reason for the cause of ADHD. My son tried a low dose and swears it helps him focus better in school.

      There are a lot of articles out there that say this is a good treatment. Certainly unless you OD on iron this is a harmless treatment. Thanks for the tip!

      no. Iron can be harmful if overused. Seek a dr.’s help immediately. He probably thinks it’s helping due to mind over matter. I bet if you switched him to pez and told him it was iron, he’d say the same thing.
