Ever feeling more than just tired, no matter how much you rest? Constant fatigue above normal tiredness may be a sign of iron deficiency anemia. For many people in Markham and in the GTA, the solution may be an IV iron infusion – a quick and effective way to restore your body's iron levels and regain energy.

At METALAB: IV Therapy & Regenerative Medicine, our staff provides safe and supervised IV iron infusions to help you feel like yourself again.
Do I have Iron Deficiency Anemia?
Common symptoms of iron deficiency anemia are:
Pale or yellow skin
Constant fatigue and weakness
Shortness of breath
Chills
Headaches
Heart palpitations
Muscle weakness
If you recognize any of these signs, it may be time to get your iron levels checked.
Who Can Benefit from an Iron Infusion?
Patients with existing conditions:
Inflammatory bowel disease
Chronic kidney disease
Cancer patients
Severe menorrhagia
GI bleeding
Gastric bypass syndromes
Other Groups Who May Benefit
Beyond these conditions, iron infusions can also be a solution for:
Pregnant women: Pregnancy increases iron requirements, and infusions may be recommended if oral supplements are not effective or tolerated.
Athletes: High-performance athletes sometimes develop “sports anemia” due to increased demands on the body. IV iron can help restore optimal performance levels.
Patients intolerant to oral iron: Some individuals experience significant gastrointestinal side effects with iron pills, making infusions a more comfortable option.
Why Choose an Iron Infusion?
Iron infusions are safe, efficient, and allow patients to restore iron levels much more quickly than oral supplements. Unlike pills that may take months to build iron stores, IV iron bypasses the digestive system and delivers iron directly into the bloodstream, with results often noticeable within weeks.
