Venofer® (iron sucrose) injection

Venofer^® is indicated to treat iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in adult and pediatric patients (2 years and older) with chronic kidney disease (CKD)

• Venofer^® (iron sucrose) injection, USP is an intravenous (IV) form of iron, which is a key ingredient for making new red blood cells
  • Iron is also necessary for your bone marrow to build healthy new red blood cells and provide oxygen to your organs and tissues through hemoglobin
• If you or your child has been prescribed Venofer, it’s based on your blood work, which shows how many red blood cells you have and whether you have enough iron in your blood cells
• If you are iron deficient, raising your iron levels can help increase your hemoglobin levels
• Treating your anemia may help prevent future health problems
  • Over time, untreated IDA can cause heart problems; if you already have heart problems, it can make those problems worse
