Common sense when using iron dextran

Iron dextran is mainly an injectable iron preparation. It is mainly suitable for patients with iron deficiency anemia who do not need oral medication. It can be injected to relieve local pain. Intravenous injection is mainly performed by infusion into the vein. Iron is the main component of hemoglobin and its likes. It is mainly a carrier of some red blood cells. If iron-deficient patients do not supplement iron in time, it will cause some abnormal movements, physical weakness and other types of body diseases.

Therefore, people who are iron deficient in daily life must supplement iron. Iron supplementation is mainly found in the intestines and skin, as well as in some hemoglobin, which is critical for transporting blood and some other types. Therefore, in daily life, we must supplement iron in time.

Anti-anemia drugs. Iron is the main component of hemoglobin and myoglobin. Hemoglobin is the main oxygen carrier in red blood cells. Myoglobin is the part of muscle cells that stores oxygen to help supply oxygen when muscles move. Most enzymes involved in the tricarboxylic acid cycle contain iron or can only function in the presence of iron. Therefore, after actively supplementing iron for iron-deficient patients, in addition to accelerated hemoglobin synthesis, symptoms related to tissue iron deficiency and reduced iron-containing enzyme activity, such as growth retardation, abnormal movement, lack of physical strength, mucosal tissue changes, and skin and nail lesions can also be gradually corrected.

Note: 1. Suitable for patients with iron deficiency anemia who cannot tolerate oral iron preparations, or patients who need to correct iron deficiency quickly. 2. If hemoglobin does not gradually increase after injection of this product, the drug should be discontinued immediately. 3. It is contraindicated for patients with severe liver or kidney dysfunction.

Pharmacokinetics: Due to its large molecule, it must be absorbed by the lymphatic vessels and then enter the blood, so the blood concentration increases slowly after injection, and it takes about 24-48 hours to reach the peak. After iron is absorbed, it combines with transferrin and circulates in the blood for use in producing red blood cells. It can also accumulate in the liver, spleen, bone marrow and other reticuloendothelial tissues in the form of ferritin or hemosiderin. Iron is excreted in the human body in very small amounts every day, mainly through the intestines and skin, and small amounts can also be excreted through bile, urine, and sweat.

The above is the main introduction and precautions of iron dextran. Iron is the main component of hemoglobin and its likes. It is mainly the carrier of some red blood cells. If iron-deficient patients do not supplement iron in time, it will cause some abnormal movements, physical weakness and other types of diseases in the body. If you discover iron deficiency, you must seek treatment and diagnosis in time.
