IV Iron Infusion

Replenish your Iron. Restore your Energy.

Low iron and iron-deficiency can leave you feeling tired, weak, dizzy, short of breath, or unable to perform at your best. When oral iron is not tolerated, not effective, or when iron needs to be replaced more quickly, intravenous (IV) iron therapy may be an option.

Our IV iron treatments are administered by qualified healthcare professionals in a clinical setting, following an appropriate medical assessment.

WHO MAY BENEFIT FROM IV IRON?

IV iron may be considered for individuals with confirmed or suspected iron deficiency, particularly when:

• Oral iron is poorly tolerated
• Oral iron has not adequately corrected iron deficiency
• Iron replacement is needed more efficiently
• There is impaired absorption of oral iron
• Iron requirements are increased
• A healthcare professional determines IV iron is appropriate

COMMON SYMPTOMS OF IRON DEFICIENCY

Iron deficiency may contribute to:

• Fatigue and low energy
• Weakness
• Dizziness or lightheadedness
• Headaches
• Shortness of breath with activity
• Reduced exercise tolerance
• Difficulty concentrating
• Hair shedding or thinning
• Pale skin
• Feeling cold

Not everyone with these symptoms has iron deficiency. Appropriate blood work and clinical assessment by a healthcare professional will be used to determine treatment plan.
