 Double Fortification Of Salt With Iron And Iodine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The use of ferrous fumarate and potassium iodide for the double fortification of purified salt without the use of stabilizers had been investigated and found to be feasible (Venkatesh Mannar et al., 1989).
A batch of salt containing 1080 ± 40 ppm ferrous sulphate heptahydrate had oxidized after one month of storage to a canary yellow colour and developed the unpleasant odour associated with water from rusty pipes, while salt fortified with ferrous fumarate was stable, in terms of appearance and taste.
Ferrous sulphate was less stable than ferrous fumarate, and imparted undesirable colour and taste to the salt, while reducing the iodine content through reaction with potassium iodate.

 The Journal of Family Practice
Ferrous salt preparations (ferrous sulfate, ferrous gluconate, and ferrous fumarate) are equally tolerable.
Ferrous sulfate remains the standard first-line treatment of iron-deficiency anemia given its general tolerability, effectiveness, and low cost.
The side-effect rate in the ferrous sulfate group (23%) was significantly different from that of the placebo group (14%); thus, for every 11 patients treated with ferrous sulfate, 1 patient would have GI side effects attributable to the iron salt (number needed to harm [NNH] = 11).

Iron is available as ferrous sulfate (20 percent elemental iron), ferrous fumarate (33 percent elemental iron) and ferrous gluconate (12 percent elemental iron) salts, as prenatal vitamins and in multivitamin preparations.
It is important to remember that multivitamins with iron contain a smaller quantity of elemental iron and are therefore, less radiopaque than preparations such as ferrous sulfate and that partially dissolved tablets will not be as radiopaque as undissolved tablets.
Whole bowel irrigation may be considered in a patient who has radiographic evidence of persistent iron tablets in the abdomen after initial gastrointestinal decontamination, especially if the patient has a continually rising serum iron level.

The FDA list of iron compounds generally recognized as safe (GRAS) includes elemental iron, ferrous ascorbate, ferrous carbonate, ferrous citrate, ferrous fumarate, ferrous gluconate, ferrous lactate, ferrous sulfate, ferric ammonium citrate, ferric chloride, ferric citrate, ferric pyrophosphate and ferric sulfate.
Some iron forms, such as ferrous sulfate, ferrous gluconate and ferrous lactate, are water-soluble and highly bioavailable.
Other forms, such as ferrous fumarate, ferrous succinate and ferrous saccarate, although less reactive and highly bioavailable, are off-limits to formulators because they tend to become reactive during storage and exposure to high humidity — a prevailing condition in most manufacturing plants.
