Both iron dextrose tablets and ferrous sulfate tablets are suitable for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia caused by chronic blood loss, malnutrition, pregnancy, child development and other reasons. Gastrointestinal adverse reactions seen after administration include nausea, vomiting, epigastric pain, and constipation.
Contraindications to the use of both drugs include hypersensitivity to iron, patients with non-iron deficiency anemia, severe impairment of hepatic and renal function, urinary tract infections (especially untreated), iron overload, patients with hemochromatosis or ferrous hemoflavinosis, patients with gastric and duodenal ulcers and ulcerative colitis.
