GEtting started - what you need IN THREE STEPS

IV IRON INFUSION PROGRAM & COSTS

1. BLOOD WORK

COST: $0 - 120 - $240

  • To be eligible for IV iron infusions I need to see recent bloodwork (taken with in the last 4 weeks)

  • You can either do this through your GP or Nurse practitioner or through me (billed privately). See below.

  • I need to see the following (costs if billed privately through my clinic):

  • Iron panel and CBC (about $120).

  • Liver & Kidney Panels, Electrolytes. (about $120).

2. INJECTION CONSULT

COST: $180

TIME: 45 minutes

  • Because... safety first.

  • Before you are eligible for IV iron therapy we need to have a consult so I can understand the full history and your goals with iron infusion therapy.

  • We'll review your blood work and do any relevant physical exams (blood pressure for example). If it's warranted and safe to do so, and we have enough time allotted ** we can do the first iron infusion that day or book you back in to begin.

  • Please come to your appointment fed and hydrated.

If you don't have blood work yet, please book an injection consult here.

3. TREATMENTS

COST: $200 x 4

TIME: 45 Minutes

  • I use Venofer (iron sucrose) as it comes with the lowest risk and best safety profile (for a clinic my size).

  • I recommend weekly infusions for a total of 4 treatments. Each week your IV will contain up to 100 mg of iron.

  • Your first treatment might be a modified dose, depending on what I learn in your injection consult.

  • Most see clinical improvements between 3 and 21 days after.

  • We typically see ferritin increase by 10-15 points for each 100 mg of iron administered (less if anemic).

  • We will rerun the Iron Panel and CBC approximately 4-5 weeks after your last treatment.

  • Please come to your appointment fed and hydrated.
