Description
Feraheme (ferumoxytol) 30 mg/mL, 17 mL is an intravenous iron replacement therapy used for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is a sterile, nonpyrogenic solution containing 30 mg of elemental iron per milliliter. Feraheme is administered as an intravenous infusion, typically in a clinical or hospital setting, under the supervision of a healthcare provider.
Feraheme works by delivering iron directly into the bloodstream, where it binds to transferrin, facilitating iron transport to the bone marrow for red blood cell production. Unlike oral iron supplements, Feraheme provides a rapid increase in iron levels, addressing both acute and chronic iron deficiency anemia.
The typical dosing regimen involves an initial infusion followed by a second dose within 3-8 days, depending on the patient's clinical response and iron requirements. Common side effects may include dizziness, nausea, headache, and hypotension, with more serious reactions such as hypersensitivity or anaphylaxis being rare.
