Anemia injections are iron injections meant to help patients with iron deficiency boost their hemoglobin levels. Due to their potential adverse effects, anemia injections are administered only when the patient can’t take oral iron supplements or if they suffer from severe anemia. The shots are considered a medical treatment and can be administered exclusively under the supervision of a doctor following a test dose.
Symptoms of Anemia
People who suffer from iron deficiency anemia have a lower-than-normal number of red blood cells due to their reduced iron intake and may experience symptoms such as:
- Accentuated fatigue
- Lack of energy
- Shortness of breath
- Heart palpitations
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Pale skin color
- Headaches
- Cold hands and feet
Anemia can be a result of poor nutrition or poor iron absorption, as well as the consequence of long-term blood loss due to health conditions like hemophilia or stomach bleeding. Low iron levels may also be present in patients with chronic kidney disease.
Benefits
Anemia injections contain iron dextran, which is an iron replacement product. Iron dextran injections used as a medical treatment to combat anemia in patients:
- Replenish iron stores
- Contributes to the production of red blood cells
- Increase energy levels
- Boosts productivity
- Enhances mood
While anemia injections are efficient in the treatment of iron deficiency, it is important to remember they should be administered only following a discussion with your healthcare provider and comprehensive blood tests. Iron dextran injections may cause severe reactions, including chest pain, seizures, irregular heartbeat, and allergic reactions, such as skin rash, itching, swelling, or trouble breathing.
