HOW FERINJECT 1000 WORKS

FERINJECT 1000 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 treats iron deficiency anaemia.
