Iron lll Hydroxide Polymaltose (IPC)

About Iron lll Hydroxide Polymaltose (IPC)
It is a water soluble iron oxide, macro molecular complex of poly nuclear iron (III) hydroxide and partially hydrolysed dextrin (polymaltose).
Mechanism of Action of Iron lll Hydroxide Polymaltose (IPC)
The absorption of ferric iron from IPC is controlled by a feedback mechanism. When IPC comes in contact with the iron binding sides at the mucosal surface, a physiological exchange is assumed to occur. IPC releases the required amount of ferric iron, which is actively transported into the mucosal cell by a carrier protein and from there released for binding to ferritin or transferrin.
