Interventions

DRUGFerric Carboxymaltose (FCM)

This study will dose each patient according to their calculated iron deficit through Ganozi formula Iron deficit(mg) = bodyweight(kg) x (target Hb - actual Hb) (g/dl) x 2.4 + Iron storage depot(mg)

DRUGIron Sucrose injection

This study will dose each patient according to their calculated iron deficit through Ganozi formula Iron deficit(mg) = bodyweight(kg) x (target Hb - actual Hb) (g/dl) x 2.4 + Iron storage depot(mg)
