[A comparative study of the effectiveness of iron preparations in the treatment of iron deficiency anemias in pregnant women].

Abstract

Efficacies of ferroplex, conferon, and feramide in the treatment of pregnant patients with iron-deficiency anemia were compared. Ferroplex proved to be the most effective. Therapy with this drug brought about the best correction of iron metabolism parameters. Feramide was the least effective agent. The efficacy of iron preparations depends on the ionic form of this metal and the combination of iron with the agents conducive to its better absorption in the gastrointestinal tract.
