Iron Sucrose is a parenteral iron complex composed of polynuclear iron (III)-hydroxide bound to sucrose, used for rapid correction of iron deficiency when oral iron is ineffective or not tolerated. It offers excellent bioavailability, predictable dosing, and a strong safety profile, making it one of the most widely used IV iron therapies globally.
Provides bioavailable iron (III) directly to the reticuloendothelial system. Iron is gradually released and incorporated into hemoglobin and ferritin. Bypasses gastrointestinal absorption, ensuring rapid repletion of iron stores.

Yes, most manufacturers perform stability studies as per ICH Zone IVb (30°C / 75% RH) to support exports to tropical markets. This ensures the product remains stable in high-temperature, high-humidity regions.
Iron Sucrose typically conforms to USP and EP monographs. Manufacturers usually offer pharmacopeial-compliant grades depending on the regulatory requirements of the destination market.
Sucrose degradation can occur under extreme heat or acidic conditions, but when stored properly (cool, protected from light), degradation is minimal. Stability is maintained within standard storage conditions.
Iron Sucrose is commonly packed in epoxy-lined or HDPE drums with sterile, light-protected inner liners. For small-volume or sensitive batches, amber glass containers may also be used to prevent light exposure.
