Overview
We keep Solvotrin Active Iron Supplement 14mg, Clinically Proven, Gentle on our iron shelf alongside 47 others, and rank it on rating, review volume and live price rather than on the brand. The manufacturer puts it this way: Active Iron 14mg is clinically proven to support haemoglobin formation and increase iron levels; Our iron supplement supports blood building. Unlike most iron supplements, our groundbreaking formula maintains iron in its most absorbable form to maximise bioavailability and minimise oxidation. That is the maker talking, not us, so read it as a claim rather than a finding. 2,000 ratings put it at 4.5 out of 5. The comparison with the rest of the shelf follows.

How it compares on the iron shelf
Across the 48 rated iron products we track, the middle of the pack sits at 4.5 out of 5. This one scores 4.5. That's mid-table. Star ratings won't separate this from its neighbours, so the decision comes down to pack size, price per unit and whether the specifics below suit you.
Behind that score sit 2,000 ratings, against a shelf median of 373. That's a deep enough base for the score to be stable, and it is the reason we rank on volume as well as stars.
Price-wise it falls in the top third of a shelf that stretches £3.64 to £30.00, with £9.94 in the middle. It costs more than most while rating around the middle, so the extra money needs to be buying something specific: pack size, brand you trust, or a detail below that matters to you.
Worked out from the 48 iron products we track, not from the brand's own claims.
