dextran + iron dextran

Shreya Life Sciences' iron complex formulation is an injectable iron replacement therapy designed to treat iron deficiency anemia. The product consists of iron dextran, a complex of ferric hydroxide and a dextran polymer carrier, often formulated with additional dextran. This formulation acts as a reservoir for iron, which is slowly released and processed by the reticuloendothelial system to restore depleted iron stores. By providing a source of iron, the drug enables the synthesis of hemoglobin and the production of red blood cells. It is primarily indicated for patients with iron deficiency anemia who cannot tolerate or have not responded adequately to oral iron supplementation.
