Efficacy and cost effectiveness of intravenous ferric carboxymaltose versus iron sucrose in adult patients with iron deficiency anaemia.

<h4>Background</h4>Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is a major health issues and common type of nutritional deficiency worldwide. For IDA treatment, intravenous (IV) iron is a useful therapy.<h4>Objective</h4>To determine the efficacy and cost-effectiveness (CE) of intravenous (...
