Iron Infusions

At Primary Care of Kansas, we offer safe and effective Iron Infusion Therapy to treat iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anemia when oral supplements are not enough or cannot be tolerated.

If you’re constantly feeling tired, weak, short of breath, or experiencing hair thinning or brain fog, low iron levels may be the cause. Iron infusions can help restore your iron levels quickly and efficiently.

What Is an Iron Infusion?

An iron infusion is an intravenous (IV) treatment that delivers iron directly into your bloodstream. This method allows your body to absorb iron immediately, bypassing the digestive system.

Unlike oral iron supplements, which may take months to work and often cause stomach discomfort, IV iron provides faster results with fewer gastrointestinal side effects.

  • Cannot tolerate oral iron supplements
  • Have chronic blood loss
  • Experience heavy menstrual cycles
  • Have gastrointestinal absorption issues

  • Persistent fatigue
