Injectafer® Has Been Linked To Severe Hypophosphatemia (HPP)

Injectafer Injection BottleInjectafer® is an injectable iron complex used to treat iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in adult patients who cannot take iron supplements or had a poor response to them and adult patients with chronic kidney disease who are not receiving dialysis.

Clinical studies have indicated that Injectafer® increases the risk of severe Hypophosphatemia (HPP). HPP is a condition in which blood levels of phosphate become abnormally low. The manufacturer, American Regent, Inc., a subsidiary of Luitpold Pharmaceuticals, Inc., does not warn about the serious risk posed by Injectafer®, leaving patients and doctors unaware of the danger.

Researchers reported in 2016 that among patients injected with ferric carboxymaltose (FCM), the type of iron used in Injectafer®, the prevalence of HPP was 45.5% and the prevalence of severe HPP was 32% as compared to only 4% HPP and no severe HPP with another form of injectable iron supplement. Other studies have shown similar results, but so far, American Regent has failed to provide adequate warnings on Injectafer®, stating only that the injection may result in mild side effects like headaches, nausea, and “low levels of phosphorus in the blood.” These warnings do not reveal the potentially dangerous and even deadly risk of severe HPP.
