About Iron Deficiency and ACCRUFeR®/FeRACCRU®
Clinically low iron levels (aka iron deficiency, ID) can cause serious health
problems for adults of all ages, across multiple therapeutic areas. Together,
ID and ID with anemia (IDA) affect about 20 million people in the US and
represent a $2.3B market opportunity. As the first and only FDA approved oral
iron to treat ID/IDA, ACCRUFeR® has the potential to meet an important unmet
medical need for both physicians and patients.
ACCRUFeR®/FeRACCRU® (ferric maltol) is a novel, stable, non-salt-based oral
therapy for adults with ID/IDA. The drug has a novel mechanism of absorption
compared to other oral iron therapies and has been shown to be an efficacious
and well-tolerated therapy in a range of clinical trials. More information
about ACCRUFeR®/FeRACCRU®, including the product label, can be found at:
www.accrufer.com (http://www.accrufer.com) and www.feraccru.com
(http://www.feraccru.com) .
