Farris 20mg Injection

Farris 20mg Injection is an intravenous iron replacement therapy used for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia. It contains Iron Sucrose (20mg/ml), a form of iron that is directly absorbed into the bloodstream. Farris is especially useful in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), pregnant women, or those who cannot tolerate or absorb oral iron supplements. Administered by a healthcare professional, Farris Injection quickly boosts iron levels, supports red blood cell production, and helps restore normal hemoglobin levels in the body.

Uses of Farris 20mg Injection

• Treatment of iron deficiency anemia
• Anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD)
• Iron supplementation when oral iron is not tolerated or effective
• Management of anemia during pregnancy or post-surgery recovery

How Farris 20mg Injection Works

Farris Injection contains iron sucrose, which is delivered directly into the bloodstream. The body uses this iron to produce hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. By increasing iron availability, Farris helps restore healthy red blood cell levels and alleviates symptoms of anemia such as fatigue, weakness, and breathlessness.
