This is an issue about premies who don't get iron from mom in the last 6-8
weeks of pregnancy because they've come to early.
So they need it replaced to achieve normal levels, not high levels.
Of course drops are preferable to formula. I can't figure out why dr thinks
4 oz of iron fortified formula a day will be sufficient :-( Pat in SNJ
