Ferric carboxymaltose complex:Treatment of iron deficiency anaemia (when oral
treatment is ineffective or contraindicated)
Drug interactions
Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs
Dimercaprol: avoid concomitant use.
Oral iron: reduced absorption
Metabolism
Most absorbed iron is bound to transferrin and
transported to the bone marrow where it is incorporated
into haemoglobin; the remainder is contained within the
storage forms, ferritin or haemosiderin, or as myoglobin,
with smaller amounts occurring in haem-containing
enzymes or in plasma bound to transferrin. Only very
small amounts of iron are excreted as the majority
released after the destruction of the haemoglobin
molecule is re-used.
