MEDICATION (VET): A complex of iron, citric acid and sorbitol stabilized with dextrin. Use: im prophylaxis of baby pig anemias indicated it to be inferior to iron dextrans based on Fe blood and tissue levels.

...A total number of 60 pregnant women with the gestational age of 12-34 weeks were included in the study who were suffering from iron deficiency anemia. They were divided in 3 groups (A, B and C). Group A (n=15) received iv iron sucrose according to recommended dose containing 500 mg of iron sucrose for storage, in group B (n=20) iron sucrose was administered according to deficit calculated as per formula but 200 mg of iron was given for storage instead of 500 mg, to reduce cost. While group C received intra muscular iron Sorbitol in the dose used as practice. RESULTS: Mean hemoglobin in group A and B was 8.0 +/- 1.1 g/dL and 8.9 +/- 0.7 respectively, in group C, it was 8.8 +/- 0.9 g/dL. In group A & B initial hemoglobin was assessed 3 weeks post therapy which showed an average rise of 2.8 g/dL (group A) and 1.9 g/dL (group B) and second assessment of Hemoglobin was done prior to delivery (ave: 6.6 weeks) showed a total rise of 3.8 g/dL (group A) and 2.4 g/dL (group B). Pre delivery mean Hemoglobin in group A and B was 11.8 g/dL and 11.3 g/dL respectively. In group C, the Hemoglobin was assessed only prior to delivery (average: 8.4 weeks from the start of therapy), and a rise of 1.4 g/dL was observed with pre delivery mean Hemoglobin of 10.2 g/dL. Target hemoglobin levels i.e. 11 g/dL were achieved by 80% in Group A, 70% in Group B and 28% in Group C by the time of delivery. Blood transfusion was not required in any group. In group A and B one patient had moderate abdominal pain, 2 had weakness and shivering and 3 had phlebitis at the site where intravenous canula was retained. None of patient discontinued the therapy due to any adverse effect. In group C majority complained of pain at injection site while 5 patients dropped out from the study due to intolerance.

...Young BALB/CJ mice, from 5-23 days of age, and adult (60-100 days old) mice, some of which were iron deficient due to a low iron diet from the time of weaning, were given iron sc (iron sorbitol, Fe+3, 1.2 mg iron/100g bw/injection). Iron was given as one single dose and the animals killed 20-24 hr later. Control mice were similarly treated with saline. In young mice, from the age 10 days to weaning at 20 days, the serum immunoreactive erythroprotien level, measured 20-24 hr after a single sc dose of iron, was 5 times greater than that in control mice (P<0.0001). In contrast, there was no change in serum immunoreactive erythroprotien 20-24 hr after a single sc dose of iron in adult mice, whether iron-deficient anemic or normal. Thus, during the "early anemia" in young mice over 10 days old, iron increased serum immunoreactive erythroprotien levels, whereas it had no such effect in iron-deficient and normal adult mice.

Iron sorbitol is absorbed directly into the bloodstream as well as via the lymphatic system. Sixty-six percent of the intramuscular injection is absorbed within 3 hours.

Iron sorbitex appears to be absorbed directly into the blood stream as well as through the lymphatic system. In man, serum iron content rises rapidly, reaching a peak about 2 hr after im administration; the iron is rapidly cleared from the serum, and bone marrow uptake occurs within 24-48 hr.
