Irozorb Injection 2.5 ML contains ferric hydroxide polymaltose complex equivalent to elemental iron (100 mg per 2.5 mL).

• Iron replacement: The ferric hydroxide polymaltose complex directly supplies iron to your body, replacing what is missing due to iron deficiency.

• Haemoglobin production: Once administered, the iron is released from the complex and transported to your bone marrow, where it helps create haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout your body.

• Iron storage: Any excess iron not immediately used for haemoglobin production is transported to your liver and spleen, where it is stored as ferritin (an iron-storage protein) for future use by your body.

• Oxygen transport improvement: By increasing haemoglobin levels, this medicine enhances the oxygen-carrying capacity of your blood, helping to relieve symptoms of anaemia.

• Store Irozorb Injection 2.5 ML at room temperature.

• Keep protected from direct light and moisture.

• Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures.

• Store out of reach of children.

• Do not use after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

• Discard any unused portion as per local regulations.

• Include iron-rich foods in your diet such as leafy green vegetables, beans, red meat, and fortified cereals to help boost your haemoglobin levels alongside your iron therapy.

• Consume vitamin C-rich foods (like citrus fruits, berries, and tomatoes) with meals to enhance iron absorption from your diet.
