Objective. To investigate the efficiency of Tardyferon treatment for manifest iron deficiency in pregnant women.
Subjects and methods. A total of 108 women with singleton pregnancy and mild iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) have been followed up during 2017-2018. Group 1 (a study group) consisted of 55 pregnant women treated for IDA with an iron sulfate-containing drug (Tardyferon); Group 2 (a comparison group) comprised 53 pregnant women treated for IDA with iron (III)-hydroxide polymaltosate complex containing 100 mg of iron.
Results. The key hemogram indicators in Group 1 patients treated with Tardyferon were higher than those in Group 2. Side effects were noted in 21 (39.6%) patients treated with iron (III)-hydroxide polymaltose complex and in 5 (9.1%) pregnant women using Tardyferon, which suggests its good tolerance and, accordingly, high treatment adherence.
Conclusion. The anemic pregnant women treated with iron preparations show a significant normalization of ferrokinetic parameters, which leads to improved tissue oxygenation and favorable changes in a pregnant women with anemia and, as a result, to a positive clinical effect.
