Introduction

Asfoxt inj.

Asfoxt Inj is an intravenous iron sucrose formulation designed to rapidly correct iron deficiency anemia, particularly in patients with chronic kidney disease or those intolerant to oral iron supplements. It delivers essential iron directly into the bloodstream, bypassing gastrointestinal absorption issues for faster hemoglobin recovery.

Key Therapeutic Uses
This injectable helps treat severe iron shortages causing fatigue, weakness, and pallor, especially during pregnancy, post-surgery, or in malabsorption conditions. It supports red blood cell production and prevents complications like folate-related neural tube defects when combined with supportive nutrients.

Dosage and Administration
Administered as a slow IV injection or infusion under medical supervision, typically 100mg per dose with monitoring for blood pressure and iron levels. A full course might involve multiple vials over weeks, tailored to patient needs.

Common Side Effects
Expect possible injection-site pain, nausea, taste changes, or blood pressure fluctuations; dizziness may occur, so avoid driving post-dose. Rare hypersensitivity requires immediate medical attention
