FORTH 500MG INJECTION contains ferric carboxymaltose as its active ingredient, which is classified as an iron replacement product. It is used to treat iron-deficiency anemia, a condition marked by a decrease in red blood cells due to insufficient iron, in both adults and children, particularly when oral iron supplements are poorly tolerated or ineffective.
This medication is also indicated for adults suffering from chronic kidney disease who have iron deficiency anemia but are not on dialysis. Generally, it is not recommended for children under the age of one.
Before receiving FORTH 500MG INJECTION, it is important to inform your healthcare provider about any allergies you may have to ferric carboxymaltose or any other components of the injection. It is contraindicated in cases of anemia not caused by iron deficiency, iron overload (excessive iron accumulation in the body), or issues with iron utilization. Additionally, disclose any pre-existing medical conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, severe asthma, eczema, infections, liver issues, or low phosphate levels in your blood. Be aware that improper administration can result in irritation and persistent discoloration at the injection site. It is essential to discuss your complete medical history with your doctor to ensure safe and effective treatment.
Before starting treatment with FORTH 500MG INJECTION, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Possible side effects include nausea, hypertension (high blood pressure), flushing, reactions at the injection site, skin reactions, vomiting, and dizziness. Notify your doctor immediately if you have previously experienced severe allergic (hypersensitive) reactions to other injectable iron preparations, as this may influence the appropriateness of this medication for you. Your physician will evaluate your overall health and determine if FORTH 500MG INJECTION is suitable for you.
FORTH 500MG INJECTION is administered intravenously by a healthcare professional. The dosage and frequency of administration will depend on your individual needs.
