    You fail to mention what other type of medicines you are taking besides a vitamin, but that is a common complaint when starting new medicines. Iron can cause hardened stools. Just increase your water intake, and try some Mirilax. It may not happen for a few days, but it will keep you regular. If you need immediate relief, try an enema.
