Oral iron replacement therapy with Chromagen, containing ferrous fumarate, and Niferex, containing polysaccharide iron complex, can successfully maintain hematologic and iron indices in dialysis clients and demonstrated fewer adverse effects in selected clients. Their multiple ingredient dose forms, which further support erythropoiesis, and their possible decrease in distressing side effects should enhance client compliance, making these two drugs excellent alternatives to traditional iron therapies.
