Sacro Fer Iv Ampoules 5 ml

Description:

Sacro Fer IV Ampoules 5 ml (SACROFER 100 mg/5 ml) is a prescription injectable iron medicine designed for intravenous administration to treat and prevent iron-deficiency anemia when oral iron is ineffective, not tolerated, or not feasible. Each ampoule contains elemental iron for rapid replenishment of depleted iron stores, supporting hemoglobin production and improving oxygen transport in the body. It is used under strict medical supervision in hospitals or clinical settings for adults and, when indicated, for specific patient groups as determined by a physician.

Indications:

• Treatment of iron-deficiency anemia due to inadequate dietary intake, chronic blood loss, or increased requirements (e.g. pregnancy), when oral iron is not suitable or ineffective.
• Rapid replenishment of iron stores in patients with severe anemia requiring parenteral iron therapy.
• Iron-deficiency anemia in patients with malabsorption syndromes or gastrointestinal conditions where oral iron cannot be adequately absorbed.
• Iron replacement in patients who cannot tolerate oral iron due to gastrointestinal side effects (e.g. nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain).
• Pre- and post-operative iron deficiency where rapid iron correction is required as assessed by a healthcare professional.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Iron (as parenteral iron preparation) – 100 mg elemental iron per 5 ml ampoule.
• Other excipients: Full excipient list and concentrations , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website. Refer to the official package insert for complete composition.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Sacro Fer IV is for intravenous use only and must be administered by a qualified healthcare professional in a clinical or hospital setting.
• Dosage is individualized based on the degree of iron deficiency, body weight, hemoglobin level, and clinical condition. The total iron dose and schedule must be calculated and prescribed by the physician.
• Administer strictly according to the doctor’s instructions, either as a slow intravenous injection or diluted in compatible infusion fluid as an intravenous infusion, following the product’s official prescribing information.
• Patients should be monitored during and after administration for signs of hypersensitivity or adverse reactions, including blood pressure, pulse, and general clinical status.
• Do not self-inject or use at home. Do not mix with other medicinal products in the same syringe or infusion solution unless specifically recommended in the official instructions.
• Use only clear, intact ampoules. Do not use if the solution appears discolored, cloudy, or contains particulate matter.

Clinical Benefits:

• Rapid correction of iron deficiency by directly supplying elemental iron into the bloodstream, bypassing gastrointestinal absorption issues.
• Supports the production of hemoglobin, improving oxygen transport to tissues and helping relieve symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and dizziness associated with iron-deficiency anemia.
• Useful for patients who cannot tolerate or do not respond adequately to oral iron supplements, improving treatment adherence and outcomes.
• Helps restore iron stores in conditions of chronic blood loss, increased iron demand (e.g. pregnancy), or malabsorption, contributing to overall hematologic and functional recovery.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to iron preparations or any component of the product.
• Contraindicated in patients with iron overload (hemochromatosis, hemosiderosis) or anemia not caused by iron deficiency (e.g. hemolytic anemia).
• Use with extreme caution in patients with a history of asthma, eczema, other allergies, or previous reactions to parenteral iron, as serious hypersensitivity reactions may occur.
• Intravenous iron may cause serious, potentially life-threatening anaphylactoid or hypersensitivity reactions. Emergency equipment and trained personnel must be immediately available during administration.
• Monitor patients closely during and for an appropriate period after each administration for signs of allergic reactions, hypotension, chest pain, shortness of breath, or other systemic symptoms.
• Use with caution in patients with liver disease, active infections, or inflammatory conditions, as parenteral iron may worsen certain conditions.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant or nursing. Use in pregnancy should be based on clear medical need and under specialist supervision.
• Inform your doctor about all medications and supplements you are taking, especially other iron products, as concomitant use may increase the risk of iron overload.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without proper medical evaluation and prescription.
• Keep out of reach of children. Accidental overdose of iron-containing products can be fatal in children.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects may include transient changes in taste (metallic taste), nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, flushing, or injection site reactions (pain, swelling, redness).
• Cardiovascular effects such as low blood pressure, dizziness, or palpitations may occur, especially if administered too rapidly.
• Allergic or hypersensitivity reactions may present with rash, itching, hives, shortness of breath, wheezing, chest tightness, or facial and throat swelling.
• Serious reactions, including severe hypotension, anaphylactic shock, or collapse, are rare but require immediate medical attention and discontinuation of the infusion.
• If you experience difficulty breathing, severe dizziness, chest pain, swelling of the face or throat, or any severe or unusual symptoms during or after the injection, seek emergency medical help immediately.
