Overview

Systematic review analyzes iron supplementation for adolescent girls in urban and rural areas, highlighting compliance challenges.

Key Points

  • Compliance with iron supplementation is low, ranging from 14-47%, despite coverage exceeding 60%.
  • Support from teachers and ongoing education are enabling factors that can enhance compliance with supplementation programs.
  • Barriers include unappealing tablet taste, side effects, and logistical issues that hinder effective iron supplementation.
  • Direct supervision in international studies has been shown to raise compliance rates to over 80%, thereby reducing anemia prevalence.
