Iron infusion

Monofer contains a combination of iron and derisomaltose (a chain of modified sugar molecules). The form of iron contained in Monofer corresponds to the form that occurs naturally in the body, which is called ‘ferritin’. This means that Monofer can be administered in high doses as an injection.

Monofer is used for low iron levels (also called ‘iron deficiency’ or ‘iron deficiency anemia’) when:
– oral iron is not effective or you cannot tolerate it.
– your doctor decides that you need iron very quickly to replenish your iron stores
