Signs of iron deficiency include paleness due to low levels of blood pigments (anaemia), unusual tiredness, shortness of breath or reduced physical performance. Swissmedic-approved patient informationFerrum Hausmann®Vifor (International) Inc.What is Ferrum Hausmann and when is it used? Ferrum Hausmann capsules contain iron as an active ingredient (in the form of the salt iron(II) fumarate), which the organism needs to produce the blood pigment in the red blood cells. Ferrum Hausmann Capsules are used to remedy an iron deficiency in the body, which occurs, for example, during pregnancy, childbirth, frequent and heavy menstrual bleeding, blood loss due to gastrointestinal diseases or after gastrointestinal operations, iron absorption disorders from food in old age or during growth phases in children. Signs of iron deficiency include paleness due to low levels of blood pigments (anaemia), unusual tiredness, shortness of breath or reduced physical performance. What should be considered?Before you start taking Ferrum Hausmann Capsules, your doctor should check that your blood contains too little iron and blood pigment (haemoglobin). or have been confirmed by the doctor through suitable examinations. If the "anaemia" is not caused by iron deficiency, the preparation is not only ineffective, it can also lead to iron overload. Your doctor will monitor the progress of the therapy with blood tests. If your symptoms do not improve within 3 weeks, see your doctor. When should Ferrum Hausmann not be taken? If you suffer from iron storage disease, iron overload, iron utilization disorders (e.g. "anemia" due to impaired absorption of iron in the intestine), iron intolerance (e.g. severe inflammatory diseases of the stomach and intestines) or severe liver and kidney diseases, you must not take Ferrum Hausmann capsules. Your doctor knows what to do in such cases. Children under the age of 6 must not be treated with Ferrum Hausmann capsules, but only with a preparation that contains less iron. Your doctor knows which preparation is suitable for children under the age of 6. When is caution required when taking Ferrum Hausmann?In the case of inflammatory stomach or intestinal diseases or other diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, you should use iron preparations with caution and take after consultation with the doctor.

For the same reason, the capsules should not be taken at the same time as food and beverages containing tanning agents (black tea, coffee). If Ferrum Hausmann Capsules and thyroid hormones have to be taken, the dosing interval should be at least 2 hours apart, otherwise the absorption of the thyroid hormone will be disrupted. Some medicines against gastric hyperacidity (if they contain calcium carbonate) or against excessive blood lipids (cholestyramine) can reduce the effect of Ferrum Hausmann Capsules by impairing the absorption of iron in the intestine. There should therefore be a gap of several hours between taking the medicines mentioned above and an iron preparation.
