"Chromagen-Feosol-Niferex-Tabron"
Iron supplementation is required by most dialysis patients receiving recombinant human
erythropoietin. The efficacy of oral iron is variable in these patients, and many require the
use of intravenous iron dextran to maintain adequate iron levels, defined as transferrin
saturation greater than 20%, serum ferritin greater than 100 ng/mL, and serum iron
greater than 80 micrograms/dL. To determine the efficacy of different oral iron
preparations in maintenance of iron status, we prospectively studied 46 recombinant
human erythropoietin-treated patients and randomized them to receive different oral iron
preparations. These four preparations included Chromagen (ferrous fumarate; Savage
Laboratories, Melville, NY), Feosol (ferrous sulfate; SmithKline Beecham, Inc, Pittsburgh,
PA), Niferex (polysaccharide; Central Pharmaceuticals, Inc, Seymour, IN), or Tabron
(ferrous fumarate; Parke-Davis, Morris Plains, NJ). All patients were prescribed
approximately 200 mg of elemental iron daily of their assigned iron preparation with at
least 100 mg ascorbic acid daily for 6 months. At baseline and bimonthly during the
study, serum iron, transferrin saturation, ferritin, hematocrit, and recombinant human
erythropoietin dose were monitored; in addition, compliance and side effects were
recorded by patient interview. All patients were able to maintain target hematocrit during
the 6 months of study. However, there were differences in the trends of serum iron,
percent transferrin saturation, and ferritin when considered singly or in combination
between the four groups of iron medications. The percent of laboratory values measured
over the study period in each group that met the criteria of transferrin saturation more
than 20% was greatest in the Tabron group (58%), followed by the Feosol (47%),
Chromagen (33%), and Niferex (31%) groups.
