Iron Infusion:
How the Treatment Works
An iron infusion takes approx. 30–45 minutes and is administered as a short infusion at our practice. We exclusively use iron carboxymaltose (Ferinject®) – currently the best tolerated iron preparation.
Indications: Ferritin below 15 ng/ml with symptoms, intolerance to oral iron supplements, chronic inflammatory bowel disease, before/after surgery, heavy menstruation, athletes with increased iron requirements.
Procedure: Initial consultation and blood draw → Results discussion → Infusion appointment → Follow-up after 8–12 weeks.
Costs: Iron infusion is generally covered by health insurance (basic insurance KVG) when iron deficiency is confirmed.
