GENERAL: Can iron supplements cause you to lose your appetite?

I have been taking iron supplements for about 1-1/2 weeks, first Feosol (which was discontinued after 2 days because GI problems) and now Repliva. I have noticed since starting the iron that I have hardly any appetite. I don't want to eat and when I do eat, I can eat very little. I have lost about 7 pounds in the last week, which is not necessarily a problem now but could become a problem if this type of weight loss continues.

Is loss of appetite a normal side effect?
