Iron infusion - blood levels/NHS guidance

0 Replies

Hi all, I was trying to find NHS/NICE guidance on when someone is a candidate for an iron infusion. I would imagine there is a level of ferritin or haemoglobin below which an infusion is required, however I cannot find this online despite searching extensively.

Hopefully someone can help point me in the right direction.
