Brief Summary
By describing the characteristics of iron deficiency (ID) patients treated with various oral or intravenous iron formulations and their outcomes, this registry will provide the medical community with important information to support treatment decisions for their patients regarding data on effectiveness, safety, tolerability, treatment persistence, quality of life, and therapeutic costs. This will ultimately support improvements to patient care, including the long-term outcomes of patients with ID.
