Product information
Description OROFER FCM INJECTION contains Ferric carboxymaltose, which belongs to the group of medicines called Iron replacement medicines. It is used to manage iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in adults and in children (above 14 years of age) who are unable to take iron supplements orally, have an intolerance to oral iron supplements, need a rapid iron supplement in the body, or have non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease. Iron deficiency anaemia is a condition in which the body lacks enough amount of iron, which is essential for the production of red blood cells and transport of oxygen in the body. Your doctor may advise you to take relevant tests to understand your existing condition. Before receiving OROFER FCM INJECTION, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or breastfeeding. OROFER FCM INJECTION is not recommended for use in children and adolescents (under 14 years of age), and it should be used with caution in elderly patients (aged 65 years or above). Consult your doctor before receiving OROFER FCM INJECTION. The most common side effects of receiving OROFER FCM INJECTION may include headache, dizziness, flushing, high blood pressure, nausea, and injection or infusion site reactions. Consult your physician if any of the symptoms worsen. Uses Of OROFER FCM INJECTION Manages iron deficiency anaemia How OROFER FCM INJECTION Works OROFER FCM INJECTION contains iron (III) hydroxide complexed with a carbohydrate polymer called carboxymaltose, which is capable of releasing iron. The iron released from the complex helps in the synthesis of haemoglobin and increases red blood cell count. As a result, it manages iron deficiency anaemia.
