Iron Infusion: When It Is Needed and How It Helps With Anemia and Fatigue
Iron is a key mineral for our health, because it plays an essential role in carrying oxygen around the body. When iron stores are low, fatigue, weakness, dizziness and reduced concentration appear. Pregnant women and new mothers are particularly affected, as iron is essential for the health and recovery of the body.
When is an iron infusion needed?
Although iron can be replenished through diet or supplements, oral intake is often not sufficient in cases of severe deficiency. A high dose iron infusion is a fast and effective solution for:
- Pregnant women with diagnosed anaemia or exhaustion
- New mothers who lost a significant amount of blood during delivery
- People with chronic iron deficiency
- Those who cannot tolerate oral supplements or have digestive problems
Advantages of a high dose iron infusion
Unlike tablets, which can cause stomach upset and are absorbed more slowly,
an infusion delivers iron directly into the bloodstream. This means that:
- Haemoglobin levels rise faster and the symptoms of anaemia are reduced
- Digestive problems are avoided
- A lasting effect is achieved with only one or a few infusions
Safe and effective therapy
An iron infusion is a medical treatment administered under specialist supervision. At Miren Polyclinic, a full blood count is analysed before the therapy itself in order to establish the exact iron requirement and to adjust the dose for each patient. If you feel exhausted, have low energy or have been diagnosed with anaemia, do not wait for the symptoms to become severe. By booking a consultation you can find out whether an iron infusion is the right solution for you.
Price of an iron infusion
A high dose iron infusion at Miren Medic Polyclinic costs 24.000 RSD. The price includes administration of the therapy under medical supervision, and before the infusion the doctor confirms on the basis of your blood count that the therapy is needed and determines the dose. Current prices for all infusion therapies are listed in the price list, and you can read more about our other therapies on the infusion therapies page.
