Product Information

Description
Ferric carboxymaltose is an iron replacement therapy that functions through a multi-step mechanism of action. First, it provides a stable and bioavailable form of iron, which is essential for the production of hemoglobin and myoglobin, proteins critical for oxygen transport and storage in the body. Upon administration, ferri carboxymaltose is infused into the bloodstream, where it binds to transferrin, a protein that transports iron to various tissues. This process enhances iron availability, facilitating erythropoiesis (red blood cell production) and alleviating symptoms of iron deficiency anemia. Ferri carboxymaltose is particularly useful in treating patients with iron deficiency when oral iron supplementation is ineffective or impractical.
