Sodium ferric gluconate complex is an iron replacement product for treatment of iron deficiency anemia. The stable macromolecular complex is negatively charged at alkaline pH with an apparent molecular weight of 289,000 – 440,000 daltons on gel chromatography. It is composed of iron (III) oxide hydrate directly bonded to sucrose with a chelating gluconate function in a molar ratio of two iron molecules to one gluconate. It is used in adult and in pediatric patients over the age of 6 years with chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving hemodialysis and receiving supplemental epoetin therapy. Its therapeutic use is listed as hematologic agents. The directory classifies it as a commercial API with a mineral/inorganic source/manufacturing origin. Other names for this substance include Gluconic acid, iron(3 ) sodium salt, D-, Osmoferrin Iron and sodium gluconate. Its PubChem CID is 76968835.
