Iron tablets can be white, but they are also commonly red or green. The color depends on the specific formulation and coating of the tablet.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- Color Variations: Ferrous sulfate, a common form of iron supplement, is often found in red, green, or white tablets.
- Formulations: Different manufacturers may use different coatings or additives, which influence the tablet's final color.
- Liquid forms: Iron supplements are also available as liquid drops.
Therefore, while some iron tablets are white, it's not the only color they come in.
