General Introduction
Iron hydroxide poly maltose complex is water soluble oxides of iron. It is used in treatment of iron deficiency anaemia. The iron polymaltose complex has been formulated in such a way that the elemental form is in a nonionic state. This ensures that there is no gastric irritation with iron polymaltose complex. In addition, the high elemental iron content of iron polymaltose complex eliminates the need for frequent dosing and therefore improves compliance.
