Intravenous iron infusion

Intravenous iron infusion is a therapy in which a combination of iron and saline solution is delivered directly into the bloodstream through a vein, in patients suffering iron deficiency, iron-deficiency anaemia and chronic kidney disease. IV iron infusions are recommended when oral iron supplementation fails to adequately restore iron and haemoglobin levels in the blood. The intravenous method is a fast, safe, and effective way to deliver iron throughout the body, as it can be administered instantly rather than gradually over time.
