Iron Infusions
Home – Iron Infusions
Service Overview
Iron infusions are an intravenous iron replacement therapy given by healthcare professionals. This treatment quickly corrects iron deficiency and anemia by delivering pure iron through the veins, it absorbs faster than dietary sources and many iron supplements. Intravenous iron replacement is recommended for individuals who cannot ingest enough iron, or who require more iron, quickly. These products are administered in a medical office after preparation, with patient monitoring for signs of discomfort or allergic reaction. Iron infusions restore energy, healthy red blood cells, oxygen delivery and promote optimal health.

Why It Matters
Iron is crucial in the production of haemoglobin, the thing that carries oxygen around the body. As Iron is an essential nutrient for everyday health, lack of iron can cause symptoms such as tiredness, fatigue, breathlessness and a general feeling of not being as fit as you could be. However, rather than slowly taking supplements orally, an Iron Infusion is a quick fix that rapidly restores the body’s iron stores and helps you get back to your normal daily activities sooner. For those suffering from a serious iron deficiency or who have problems absorbing iron through their digestive system, an Iron Infusion can provide the kick-start to long-term health and wellbeing by treating the root cause of iron deficiency.
