All pregnant women attending the obstetrics outpatient clinic of kasr al aini hospital at 14-18 weeks gestation will be submitted to complete blood picture and serum ferritin. those who prove to have iron deficiency anemia (hemoglobin less than 11g/dl and serum ferritin less than 12ug/l) will be included in the study. All eligible women will be followed up at 22-23, 29-30 and 36-37 weeks' gestation for the change in hemoglobin level and ferritin level. all women will be also enquired about different side effects during treatment period. ;
