Irojet Plus Amp 2.5 Ml (50X2.5 Ml) Iron Sucrose By Martin & Brown

What is it used for?
Iron sucrose is used to treat iron-deficiency anaemia, especially when iron tablets are not suitable or have not worked. It is commonly used in people with chronic kidney disease or other conditions requiring iron replacement.

How does it work?
It supplies iron to the body, which is needed to make haemoglobin and healthy red blood cells. This helps restore iron stores and improve anaemia.

How to take/use it
Iron sucrose is given slowly into a vein by a healthcare professional. The dose and number of treatments depend on the severity of iron deficiency and the individual's medical condition. It should not be self-administered.

Common side effects
Headache, dizziness, nausea, changes in blood pressure, and pain, irritation or swelling at the injection site may occur. Temporary flushing or muscle and joint pain can also occur.

Precautions
Tell the healthcare professional about any previous reaction to intravenous iron or other medicines. It should be used only when iron deficiency has been confirmed, as excess iron can be harmful. The patient may be monitored during and shortly after administration because serious allergic or infusion reactions can rarely occur. Seek immediate medical help for breathing difficulty, facial or throat swelling, severe dizziness or fainting.
