For 55 pregnant women with severe iron-deficiency anaemia, Fe stores, estimated from serum ferritin value, were deficient. For the 18 women studied after treatment, replenishment of Fe stores was significantly greater after treatment with Fe given intravenously as Imferon than with Fe given by mouth as ferrous sulphate.
