Sodium ferric gluconate complex Disease Interactions

Sodium ferric gluconate complex injection may cause clinically significant hypotension. Hypotension associated with lightheadedness, malaise, fatigue, weakness or severe pain in the chest, back, flanks, or groin has been reported. These hypotensive reactions may or may not be associated with signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity reactions and usually resolve within one to two hours. Transient hypotension may occur during dialysis and sodium ferric gluconate complex injection may augment hypotension caused by dialysis. Patients with hypotension and patients undergoing dialysis should be monitored for signs and symptoms of hypotension during and following sodium ferric gluconate complex injection administration.
