Iron dextran

In real life, many people may suffer from anemia, which can be solved through medication or food supplements. There is a medicine that is particularly helpful for anemia patients, which is dextran iron, which can be divided into oral solution and tablets. If pregnant women or children want to take it, they need to take the medicine under the guidance of a doctor, and they can't buy it by themselves. In addition to medication to treat anemia in patients, you can eat some blood-enriching foods, such as common dates, red beans, etc.

Anemia can cause a series of abnormalities in the body and is prone to complications, even fainting. Therefore, for people with frequent anemia, it is important to replenish the blood. This can be gradually improved through medication such as oral dextran iron solution or some daily diet.

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.
