IRON INFUSIONS
An Iron infusion is a procedure where the total calculated dose of iron is infused intravenously.
You may require iron infusion if you:
- Can’t tolerate oral iron and have adverse effects from it,
- you have a malabsorption syndrome where gut does not absorb enough iron,
- have increased blood loss, in cases where we need to increase the iron levels fast to avoid medical complications or blood transfusions,
A consultation is required prior to booking for an iron infusion hence 2 appointments:
