  • Title: [Treatment of anemia in pregnancy].
    Author: Steiner H, Hilgarth M.
    Journal: Fortschr Med; 1977 Mar 17; 95(11):753-6. PubMed ID: 856693.
    Abstract:
    In a therapeutic comparative study two trial-groups (1 and 2) of 30 pregnant women each suffering from iron deficiency anemia of light degree received randomly selected a combination of ferrous succinate and multivitamins (Multibionta-Eisen) or a combination of ferrous sulfate and folic acid (preparations ES). By both medications the decrease of hemoglobin, red blood count and hematocrit could be stopped and a re-increase of these values was seen afterwards. There was no significant differences in response between Multibionta-Eisen and ES. A significant increase of Hb, RBC and Hc as compared prior to treatment was limited to group 2. Possible causes for the non-significant results of group 1 are discussed. The results of the study are demonstrating a certain superiority of preparation ME. This combination showed at least equal efficiency as preparation ES in spite of a smaller iron dosage and was well tolerated without exception. Subjective complaints may be better improved by Multibionta-Eisen.
