Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Good morning, I am familiar with oral iron supplements but have been asked to make a recommendation for IV iron. I use the " Micronutrition " book, which gives a formula for calculating the IV iron dextran, MG iron = (0.3 x wt (lbs) X 100) (14.8 - current hemoglobin)/14.8. Can someone help me with this? Thank you, Merri Lou Dobler, MS,RD,CD Rockwood Clinic, Spokane, WA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
