Abstract

Abstract A study designed to compare the effectiveness of parenteral iron dextran with oral ferrous sulfate in the treatment of anemia of pregnancy has been carried out on 246 patients. The results indicate that the iron dextran can be expected to give a more rapid response but if treatment can be continued for as long as 4 to 6 weeks the ferrous sulfate will give an over-all improvement similar to that with the parenteral preparation.
