1 | Iron | Do not take. Right after I was given venofer my blood pressure was checked. It went really high, plus I had an head so bad I could barely open my eyes. I was given the observation bag for 30 min. And after that was finished blood pressure was check and it was even higher. Head for 4 days. Do not take | F | 38 | 1 days 20 1X day | 2/20/2023 | 3 | Anemia | Only side effect I experienced shortly after was fatigue. A few days after my first infusion I experienced joint pain. I was starting to realize making a fist was very painful. After my second infusion my joint pain became even worse. | F | 28 | 21 days 200 mg 1X W | 11/15/2022 | 5 | Iron deficiency | I can recognize when my iron is low because my energy level changes. In the past, after receiving venofer, I have felt like a new person. I forget what it feels like to have energy. Also, I get a maple syrup taste in my mouth during the infusions. | F | 28 | 8 years 600mg 3X AN | 7/14/2022 | 1 | Anemia | Horrible side effects. Back pain rapid weight gain joint pain ear pain weakness neuropathy for 3 weeks post infusion anxiety bloating fluid retention. Horrible. I want my life back. | F | 49 | 14 days 300 2X W | 5/14/2022 | 4 | Low iron d.t. anemia/epogen trmnt | During IV infusions (at ~300ml/hr) I became nauseous in the last 10-20 minutes until infusion rate was dropped. While it infused, my exhaled breath smelled/tasted like maple syrup. | I went through two 5-visit IV treatments,each over 5 weeks, each with two vials of Venofer injected into a small bag of saline. It boosted my iron to better levels and made my epogen treatment more effective. | M | 23 | 10 weeks | 12/4/2008 |
