Iron Sucrose is a synthetic iron-carbohydrate complex used as an intravenous iron replacement therapy. Produced via the reaction of ferric hydroxide with sucrose, it ensures high stability and low toxicity compared to older formulations. Its molecular formula is C57H104FeO62, and it carries the CAS number 10028-22-5.
Strictly contraindicated in cases of hypersensitivity to iron sucrose or any component. Avoid administration in patients with non-iron-deficiency anemia unless confirmed by diagnostic tests. Store in original packaging at controlled room temperature (20°C to 25°C) and protect from light to maintain solution clarity and efficacy.
