After IV administration, the complex dissociates: iron is released and binds transferrin in the blood. Transferrin carries iron to the bone marrow and other target tissues. In erythroid precursor cells, the delivered iron is incorporated into hemoglobin and new red blood cells. Excess iron is stored in liver, spleen and bone marrow until needed. The sucrose moiety is largely excreted unchanged by the kidneys. Because it delivers iron directly to the bloodstream, iron sucrose promptly raises serum iron and ferritin levels, improving anemia where oral iron cannot suffice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan class=\"VODHU pdMy8\"\u003eIndications:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy label [IMS and FDA], iron sucrose injections are \u003cstrong\u003eindicated for treatment of iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD)\u003c\/strong\u003e. This includes adult and pediatric CKD patients on hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, or those not yet on dialysis. The efficacy in CKD is well established: iron sucrose is given along with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) to help achieve target hemoglobin levels. (In practice, intravenous iron is preferred in CKD because these patients often have ongoing blood losses, inflammation, or poor oral absorption.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIron sucrose is also used \u003cem\u003eoff-label\u003c\/em\u003e for other severe iron-deficiency states. For example, it is commonly given for iron-deficiency anemia in \u003cstrong\u003epregnancy or postpartum\u003c\/strong\u003e when oral iron fails or is not tolerated, or in cases of heavy uterine bleeding. It is sometimes used for anemia in inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, bariatric surgery, or any condition causing malabsorption, and in cancer patients on chemotherapy. Expert guidelines (e.g. American Society of Hematology) advise using intravenous iron when oral therapy is intolerable or too slow – such as moderate-to-severe anemia or when a quick correction is needed. Some clinicians use IV iron to avert blood transfusions. However, outside CKD such use is “off-label” and should follow clinical judgment. (Notably, major pediatric societies and obstetric guidelines emphasize checking for iron deficiency in these contexts and treating it, often recommending IV iron if oral fails, despite official label being CKD-only.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan class=\"VODHU pdMy8\"\u003eDosage and Administration:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"VODHU pdMy8\"\u003eIron sucrose is supplied in single-dose vials of 2.5 mL (50 mg), 5 mL (100 mg), and 10 mL (200 mg), all at 20 mg\/mL.

It should be administered slowly to reduce adverse reactions. For example, a 100 mg dose can be given by a 2–5 minute IV push or a 15-minute infusion (diluted in ≤100 mL saline). Larger doses (200–400 mg) are typically given as infusions: e.g. 200 mg over ~15 minutes, 300 mg over ~1.5 hours, 400 mg over ~2–2.5 hours. Blood pressure should be monitored, and staff should observe the patient during and for ≥30 minutes after each dose (since iron sucrose can cause hypotension and allergic reactions).

If a severe reaction occurs, stop the infusion immediately. Patients with a history of sensitivity to any IV iron (especially dextran or carboxymaltose) should not receive Injectafer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHypophosphatemia:\u003c\/strong\u003e A distinctive adverse effect of ferric carboxymaltose is \u003cstrong\u003elow blood phosphate\u003c\/strong\u003e. Injectafer can provoke transient hypophosphatemia – occasionally severe (leading to osteomalacia or fractures) – especially after repeated dosing. Most cases resolve within ~3 months. Risk factors include malnutrition, vitamin D deficiency, certain GI disorders, or medications affecting phosphate handling. The label advises correcting any pre-existing low phosphate and monitoring phosphate in at-risk patients during repeat courses. Patients should be educated to report muscle weakness or bone pain, which could indicate significant hypophosphatemia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther:\u003c\/strong\u003e Transient blood pressure changes (mostly hypertension) and flushing are common during or shortly after the infusion. Monitor blood pressure and treat as needed. IV iron can also cause changes in liver enzymes or iron indices; routine lab monitoring (CBC, iron studies) should be done before and periodically during therapy. Injectafer is contraindicated in patients with known allergy to ferric carboxymaltose or any of its components. Like all IV iron, it should be used cautiously in active infections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInjectafer is \u003cstrong\u003efor IV use only\u003c\/strong\u003e. It is pregnancy category C (safety in pregnancy is not fully established); severe maternal reactions could potentially affect the fetus. Decisions in pregnancy must weigh maternal benefit versus fetal risk. Nursing mothers may transfer some iron to breast milk, but this is generally not a contraindication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFerric carboxymaltose is a polynuclear iron(III)-hydroxide complex (~150 kDa) stabilized by a carbohydrate shell. After IV infusion, macrophages take up the complex and gradually break it down. The released iron binds to transferrin and is carried to the bone marrow for hemoglobin production. Because the complex is stable, there is little free (labile) iron released in plasma, reducing the risk of oxidative stress. This allows large doses of iron to be given more safely than older IV formulations. In essence, Injectafer serves as an iron reservoir that corrects the body’s iron deficit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStorage and Handling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInjectafer vials are single-use. They should be stored at room temperature. Do not mix Injectafer with other medications or diluents besides 0.9% saline. Discard any unused solution (the label states \u003cstrong\u003e“Discard Unused Portion”\u003c\/strong\u003e). Inspect the vial before use; the solution is dark brown and should not be used if it is visibly discolored or cloudy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn summary\u003c\/strong\u003e, Injectafer 100 mg\/2 mL (ferric carboxymaltose) is a high-dose IV iron indicated for IDA when oral iron is inadequate. It delivers 50 mg Fe³⁺ per mL in a stable complex. Proper dosing, slow IV administration, and monitoring are essential. Common side effects are mild, but clinicians must watch for rare serious reactions (allergy and hypophosphatemia). As with any medication, treatment should follow official guidelines and individual patient needs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"American Regent","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53793217347952,"sku":"00517-0602-01","price":349.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/0350\/files\/Injectafer-Ferric-Carboxymaltose-100-mg-Iron-Replacement-Injection.jpg?v=1779279493"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/0350\/collections\/Iron-Sucrose-Injection-200-mg-Elemental-Iron-Per-10-mL.jpg?v=1763640449","url":"https:\/\/www.mountainside-medical.com\/collections\/iron-deficiency\/sanofi.oembed","provider":"Mountainside Medical","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
