Ferric carboxymaltose, an iron replacement product, is an iron carbohydrate complex with the chemical name of polynuclear iron (III)-hydroxide 4(R)-(poly-(1→4)- O -α-D-glucopyranosyl)-oxy-2(R),3(R),5(R),6-tetrahydroxy-hexanoate. It has a relative molecular weight of approximately 150,000 Da corresponding to the following empirical formula: [FeO x (OH) y (H 2 O) z ] n [{(C 6 H 10 O 5 ) m (C 6 H 12 O 7 )} l ] k , where n ≈ 10 3 , m ≈ 8, l ≈ 11, and k ≈ 4 ( l represents the mean branching degree of the ligand). The chemical structure is presented below: Injectafer (ferric carboxymaltose injection) is a dark brown, sterile, aqueous, isotonic colloidal solution for intravenous injection. Each mL contains 50 mg iron as ferric carboxymaltose in water for injection. Injectafer is available in 2 mL, 15 mL and 20 mL single-dose vials. Sodium hydroxide and/or hydrochloric acid may have been added to adjust the pH to 5.0-7.0. Vial closure is not made with natural rubber latex. New structure
