Abstract

Objectives: One of the most important problems that will affect the quality of life and even the progression of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the development of anemia. Intravenous iron replacement therapy is more frequently preferred in patients with CKD because of the problems of tolerance of the drugs and the often unsatisfactory treatment response. Intravenous iron replacement can cause hypophosphatemia and can affect mineral and bone disorders seen in CKD patients. Our study was planned to examine the effects of intravenous iron preparations on calcium, phosphorus, and parathormone levels, which are frequently used in treatment.
