Sir, I am a BAMS doctor and my wife is a bit anaemic. She is supposed to undergo Hystrectomy operation and her Hb is just 8.8 I want to give her Inj. Orofer 0.5 ml in N Saline. My question is how many days should I give her this treatment, I mean should I adminiter her this dose daily or alternate day? Thanking you in anticipation, dr M. Shaikh
Hi and thank you so much for this query. I am so sorry to hear about this anemia that your wife has. I would like to know why you would prefer to administer this iron IV rather than per OS? Unless the oral route is contra-indicated, I will not want and encourage you to administer this Chat Doctor.  It is never a daily or alternate daily injections. The amount needed is estimated and followed by monthly injections if this is needed. Please, refrain from doing this without enough reasons for doing so! I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
