Ferium Injection 500 mg/10 ml contains Ferric Carboxymaltose, an intravenous iron preparation used for the rapid treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA). It is especially beneficial for patients who cannot tolerate oral iron therapy, require rapid iron replenishment, or have chronic conditions such as chronic kidney disease, postpartum anemia, or inflammatory bowel disease.

Ferric Carboxymaltose allows for high-dose iron administration in a single session, helping to restore hemoglobin and iron stores efficiently under medical supervision.
