Drug Interactions
As with all parenteral iron preparations, iron sucrose should not be administered concomitantly with oral iron preparations since the absorption of oral iron is reduced. Therefore, oral iron therapy should be started at least 5 days after the last injection of Iron Sucrose.
Indication
Iron sucrose is indicated for the treatment of iron deficiency in the following: - Where there is a clinical need to deliver iron rapidly to iron stores. - Patients who cannot tolerate oral iron therapy or who are noncompliant. - In active inflammatory bowel disease where oral iron preparations are ineffective. - Non-dialysis dependent-chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) patients receiving an erythropoietin. - Non-dialysis dependent-chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) patients not receiving an erythropoietin. - Hemodialysis dependent-chronic kidney disease (HDD-CKD) patients receiving an erythropoietin. - Peritoneal dialysis dependent-chronic kidney disease (HDD-CKD) patients receiving an erythropoietin
When not to Use
The use of iron sucrose is contra-indicated in cases of: - Known hypersensitivity to iron sucrose or any of its components. - Anemias not attributable to iron deficiency. - Iron overload or disturbances in utilization of iron. - Patients with a history of asthma, eczema or other atopic allergy, because they are more susceptible to experience allergic reactions. - Pregnancy first trimester .
Ivefer Iv Precautions

Parenteral administered iron preparations can cause allergic or anaphylactoid reactions, which may be potentially fatal. Therefore, treatment for serious allergic reactions and facilities with the established cardio-pulmonary resuscitation procedures should be available.
