Iron deficiency treatment.
Inside.
Iron deficiency can be roughly calculated using the formula: iron, mg = body weight, kg? 3.5? (16? Hb in g%).
The thresholds below or above which iron deficiency is considered to require treatment are shown in the table.
Table
Indicators | Children | School children and adults |
Hb, g% | <11 | <12 |
Erythrocytes, mln / mm3 | <3.5 | <4 |
Reticulocytes,% | > 15 | > 15 |
Serum iron, mcg% | <60 | <80 |
Total iron = transferrin, mcg% | > 380 | > 400 |
Average erythrocyte Hb, pg | <25 | <30 |
Average volume of erythrocytes | <30 | <30 |
The duration of treatment depends on the etiology and severity of the disease.
To ensure an adequate response, therapy with iron preparations should last at least 8 weeks. With the subsequent normalization of Hb values, treatment should be extended for the next 6Ц8 weeks to replenish the iron depot.
Monitoring indicators. If necessary, the degree of iron deficiency and the subsequent need for iron replacement should be monitored for the following laboratory parameters at intervals of approximately 4 weeks: Hb, erythrocytes, reticulocytes, serum iron, transferrin, mean erythrocyte Hb, mean erythrocyte volume.
If the doctor has not prescribed other dosages, then you should strictly adhere to the instructions below.
