A macromolecular intravenous iron complex for treating iron-deficiency anaemia in a single, controlled infusion.

Ferric Carboxymaltose is a macromolecular intravenous iron complex used to treat iron-deficiency anaemia, particularly where oral iron is ineffective, poorly tolerated or too slow. It consists of a polynuclear iron(III)-oxyhydroxide core stabilised by a carboxymaltose carbohydrate shell, which allows a large dose of iron to be given in a single, controlled infusion.
Because the iron is released in a controlled manner from the stable complex, it supports rapid replenishment of iron stores and correction of haemoglobin with a favourable tolerability profile — making it a preferred choice for modern IV iron therapy across multiple clinical settings.
A stable iron–carbohydrate complex enables high single-dose iron delivery.
Iron is released gradually and taken up by the body’s iron-transport and storage system.
Reduces the need for repeated dosing compared with older IV iron products.
Intravenous treatment of iron-deficiency anaemia.
Chronic kidney disease and inflammatory bowel disease.
Peri-operative, post-partum anaemia and infusion formulation development.

As a macromolecular iron–carbohydrate complex, the molecular formula and weight shown correspond to its characteristic complex unit; the product is ultimately defined by its iron content and pharmacopoeial specification. COA, SDS and technical documentation provided with every batch.
Supplied in pharma-grade packaging as agreed. Store cool and dry, protected from light; handle per SDS.
Pharmaceutical, injectable-quality material with controlled specifications.
Scalable, dependable supply for formulation partners.
Complete COA, SDS and technical specs with every shipment.
It is an intravenous iron used to treat iron-deficiency anaemia, especially when oral iron is ineffective or not tolerated (e.g. CKD, IBD, post-partum, peri-operative).
Yes — we supply pharmaceutical, injectable-quality material with controlled specifications for parenteral use.
No — it is a macromolecular iron(III)-carbohydrate complex, so it is defined by its iron content and specification rather than a single formula.
Yes. Full COA, SDS and technical specs with every shipment, with scalable supply and global export.
