Daily Iron vs Every-other-day Iron for Pediatric Patients With IDA

Sponsor: Loma Linda University

Summary

Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) is a prevalent global health issue affecting a significant proportion of the population, including children. While daily oral iron supplementation is a common approach to treat IDA, concerns regarding side effects and compliance have led to exploration of alternative dosing schedules, such as every-other-day. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of daily versus every other day oral iron supplementation in the management of IDA in pediatric patients.

Official title: A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Daily Oral Iron Administration to Every Alternate Day Iron Administration in the Treatment of Iron Deficiency Anemia in Pediatric Patients.
