Iron Infusion
Availability: Weekdays by appointment
Balanced Iron levels are important for normal function of the human body. It helps haemoglobin and red blood cells carry Oxygen in the blood. Iron deficiency can cause anaemia, lethargy and fatigue. This will impact your daily activities such as exercise and focusing on day to day school or work. This can impact a baby's growth during pregnancy.
Iron can be taken orally or through an infusion. Your doctor will determine the best form of treatment with a simple blood test. Iron infusion is safe with minimal side effects in the majority of the patients. Iron infusion can take between 15 to 30 mins depending on the patient's veins.
Prior to receiving the infusion, your doctor will explain general side effects. All our Iron Infusions are carried under the supervision of a general practitioner and a registered nurse. In the first consultation, we will refer you to a blood test to determine your Iron levels. If required, we will offer Iron infusion in your second visit. Bring any recent medical records which may help us with the treatment process. We have a pharmacy located conveniently next door to purchase Iron and kit.
