UNLABELLED: Anaemia is a well-known global health concern in the South Asian countries, and it is estimated that India has the utmost prevalence of anaemia and maternal deaths due to iron deficiency anaemia. This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of intravenous ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) in antenatal women with anaemia in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy.
METHODS: A single-arm prospective cohort (before-after) study among 60 antenatal women with moderate to severe anaemia in the second and third trimesters was conducted from December 2020 to December 2022, and the eligible women were given 1000 mg of intravenous FCM injection. Efficacy was assessed by rate of improvement in haemoglobin and ferritin at 2 weeks post infusion. Safety analysis was done by assessing adverse drug reactions and foetal heart monitoring during the infusion.
RESULTS: A total 60 antenatal women with a median gestational age of 32.5 weeks at presentation received 1000 mg of intravenous FCM. There was a rise in mean haemoglobin from 8.05 gm% pre-infusion to 10.93 gm% 2 weeks post infusion, showing a mean rise of 2.88 gm%. Similar improvement was noted in mean serum ferritin levels from 25.92 pre-infusion to 253.96 post FCM infusion. There were no reports of drug-related major adverse effects in the mother or the foetus.
CONCLUSIONS: FCM is found to be safe and effective treatment with rapid replenishment of haemoglobin and ferritin levels in a single dose, which makes it suitable and compels consideration as the first choice for treatment of iron-deficiency anaemia.
