About Rubired S Injection 5 ml
Rubired S Injection 5 ml belongs to a class of 'haematinics,' primarily used to treat iron deficiency and anaemia (deficiency of iron and haemoglobin). Iron deficiency occurs mainly due to poor diet, poor absorption of food or increased folate use in the body (during pregnancy). Anaemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough red blood cells for carrying the adequate oxygen required to various body tissues.
Rubired S Injection 5 ml contains 'Elemental Iron,' an essential body mineral. It is a nutritional supplement required by the red blood cells to carry oxygen to other body cells and tissues. By combining with a protein in the blood called haemoglobin, iron helps carry adequate oxygen to various body parts. It improves the quality of blood by increasing levels of haemoglobin (blood protein) and red blood cells. Rubired S Injection 5 ml also has immunity-enhancing, anti-carcinogenic (preventing cancer), and cognition-enhancing properties.
Rubired S Injection 5 ml will be administered by a healthcare professional. Your doctor will decide the dosage based on your medical condition. In some cases, it may cause side effects like muscle cramps, nausea, vomiting, taste changes, diarrhoea, constipation, headache, cough, back pain, flu symptoms, joint pain, and dizziness. Most of these side effects of Rubired S Injection 5 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.
Brief your medical history to the doctor if you have any heart/kidney/liver diseases, iron overload disorders like hemochromatosis, hemosiderosis, and intestinal problems (ulcer, colitis) before starting Rubired S Injection 5 ml. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult the doctor before using Rubired S Injection 5 ml. Drinking alcohol may affect iron absorption; therefore, it is advised to consult your doctor before using Rubired S Injection 5 ml. This medicine may cause dizziness, hence drive or operate machinery with caution. Rubired S Injection 5 ml is recommended in children above two years of age when prescribed by the doctor.

Rubired S Injection 5 ml is used to treat iron deficiency and anaemia (deficiency of iron and haemoglobin).
Rubired S Injection 5 ml contains Elemental Iron. It works by boosting the production of red blood cells (RBC) in the body, thus treating iron deficiency and its associated anaemia.
Rubired S Injection 5 ml should be used with caution and only under doctor's supervision if you have heart, liver or kidney diseases, low blood pressure, iron overload disorders like hemochromatosis, lupus (immune disorder), rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, and eczema.
Rubired S Injection 5 ml can be given to patients above 65 years of age under the supervision of a doctor. However, due to the reduced liver, kidney and heart function in older people who also use other medicines, Rubired S Injection 5 ml should be cautiously administered.
Rubired S Injection 5 ml may cause constipation as one of its side effects. Eating fibre-rich foods like vegetables, fresh fruits, and cereals and drinking plenty of water can help relieve symptoms.

Rubired S Injection 5 ml may cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, taste changes, constipation, headache, back pain or cough. If these side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
Iron-deficiency or anemia can be defined as a lack of adequate amounts of healthy red blood cells, which carry oxygen to the body's tissues. Lack of red blood cells may cause pale skin, weakness, fatigue (overtiredness), brittle nails, etc.
The food sources of iron include white beans, spinach, lentils, peas and kidney beans, lean meat, chicken, seafood, nuts and some dried fruits, such as raisins. Also, iron-protected breakfast cereals and bread.

Anemia is a blood disorder which occurs when the number of red blood cells (RBCs) that carry oxygen is lower than usual. As a result, your tissues and organs don’t get adequate oxygen. Megaloblastic anemia is a form of anemia characterized by very large red blood cells and a decrease in their number. Generally, megaloblastic anemia is due to vitamin B12 or folic acid deficiency.
Rubired S Injection 5 ml starts working within 5 minutes of giving it. However, the duration may vary depending on the severity, dose, type of cancer and other cancer medications used along with Rubired S Injection 5 ml.
Your doctor will advise blood tests to check your levels of serum methotrexate concentration (in case of methotrexate chemotherapy or overdose) to determine the best dose and duration of treatment with Rubired S Injection 5 ml. A complete blood count may also be recommended to monitor the number of red blood cells (in case of megaloblastic anemia). In order to prevent hypercalcemia (excess calcium), your calcium levels will also be monitored since Rubired S Injection 5 ml contains calcium.
Adult’s urine output should be maintained above 2,500 mL/24hr by increasing oral or intravenous fluids 12 hours before and for 36 hours after the end of methotrexate infusion. Monitor alkalinization of urine (this enhances drug excretion) so that the urinary pH is greater than 7.0 before methotrexate infusion. Drinks, foods and drugs that may increase urinary acidity should be avoided during the therapy. Finally, blood methotrexate concentration should be measured at least 24, 48, and 72 hours after starting the methotrexate infusion.
