We are pleased to offer iron infusion treatments now at Redlynch Village Medical Centre with all doctors, to help combat iron deficiency and boost your energy levels. Further information regarding iron infusions can be booked with our clinic.

 WHAT IS AN IRON INFUSION?

An iron infusion is a minor one-hour procedure that involves injecting an iron-containing medicine directly into the bloodstream, in order to circulate and reach the organs that require iron to function normally. This is given to patients with low iron levels.

Our bodies need iron to make haemoglobin – the part of our red blood cells that carries oxygen around our body. It is also important for muscle strength, energy and good mental function. If your iron levels are low this may make you feel tired and not able to do normal daily activities.

Patients appreciate the convenience of this treatment at a time that suits them, with a quick return to their home or work.

After your doctor has explained the procedure, related side effects, and set out associated out-of-pocket expenses, you will be asked to sign a consent form confirming your agreement to proceed.

The infusion is given via a needle in your arm which will be inserted by your doctor, the infusion will run for approximately 15mins.

A trained nurse will stay with you for the duration of the infusion. Once the infusion is complete you are requested to stay another 30 minutes for observation. For your comfort our nursing team allocated 1 hour for the completion of your visit.
