Modern views of epidemiology, etiology and pathogenesis of iron deficiency anemia are considered. Mechanisms of iron metabolism regulation are described based on the most important literature data and the results of the authors' research. The authors present their own and literature clinical experience of using iron-containing drugs with reference to the existing recommendations on the treatment of iron deficiency anemia. Causes of low treatment efficiency are discussed and the ways to address this problem are proposed based on the published results of clinical research.
