What Is Iron Infusion Therapy?

Iron infusion therapy delivers iron directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous (IV) line, allowing for faster and more effective replenishment compared to oral supplements. This treatment is recommended when iron deficiency is significant, when oral iron is not tolerated, or when rapid correction is needed.

Who Can Benefit?

Iron infusion therapy may be recommended for:

  • Iron deficiency anemia

  • Iron deficiency without anemia

  • Recovery from chemotherapy

  • Pregnancy or postpartum

  • Chronic kidney disease (CKD)

  • Heavy menstrual bleeding

  • Gastrointestinal disorders
