Feren Injection is an iron replacement medicine used to treat iron-deficiency anemia, a type of anemia where you have too few red blood cells due to too little iron in your body. Feren Injection is given by slow infusion (drip) into a vein by your doctor or nurse. Your doctor will decide the dose you need and how many injections you should have to improve your anemia. It will also help to eat a well-balanced diet that has enough iron. Good sources of iron include pulses (dal), green leafy vegetables like spinach, beans, eggs, dry fruits, and non-vegetarian foods. The most common side effects include altered taste, hypertension (high blood pressure), nausea, and injection site reactions (such as pain, redness, and swelling).
Feren Injection is an anti-anemic medication. It replenishes the iron stores in your body. Iron is vital for the formation of new red blood cells and hemoglobin, a substance that gives these cells the ability to transport oxygen.
How long can I take Feren Injection for?
Feren Injection is used to regulate hemoglobin levels in the human body. It's typically prescribed for patients with iron-deficient anemia or iron deficiency. The duration of treatment depends on your individual needs and will be decided by your doctor. Consult them for personalized instructions.
How is Feren Injection administered?
Feren Injection should only be administered under the supervision of a healthcare professional or your doctor, never independently. The dosage will depend on the specific condition being treated and prescribed by your doctor. Follow their instructions carefully for optimal results.
Can I take Feren Injection for anemia and iron deficiency?
Yes, Feren Injection is used to treat both iron-deficient anemia and iron deficiency. However, it's not recommended for treating other types of anemia. Always consult your doctor for the correct dosage and duration of treatment.
What types of food items should I take other than Feren Injection?
In addition to Feren Injection, you can consume foods rich in iron, such as red meat, poultry, seafood. Other sources of iron include beans, dark green leafy vegetables (like spinach), peas, dried fruits (raisins and apricots), iron-fortified cereals, breads, and pastas. Consider taking iron supplements (tablets or capsules) available at pharmacy stores for further assistance with iron deficiency anemia.
Does Feren Injection increase weight?
Yes, Feren Injection can potentially lead to weight gain. However, maintain an active lifestyle by incorporating exercise into your routine and consume a balanced diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and fat-free products. Consult your doctor for additional guidance on managing your weight.
