Deficiency of iron is one of the most common nutritional disorders in the society. Iron deficiency anemia is described as decreased production in red blood cells (RBCs) due to low body iron stores.Anemia commonly occurs in people with chronic kidney disease and it might begin to develop in the early stages and tends to worsen as disease progresses. Iron supplementation is mandatory in the majority of patients with renal disease, particularly in those receiving ESA therapy. Treatment with intravenous iron in some clinical situations could present some advantages over oral iron, such as faster and higher increases of hemoglobin (Hb) levels and body iron stores. Some modern formulations of intravenous iron have emerged as a safe and effective alternative for iron deficiency anaemia management. E.g.: iron sucrose. Ferric carboxy maltose is a parenteral iron dextran-free product and the first of the new agents approved for rapid and high-dose replenishment of depleted iron stores.
