What methods are good for iron supplementation in uremic patients?

Patient's question:

Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've been experiencing some swelling in my body. I feel weak all over. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was kidney disease. I was wondering what methods are best for iron supplementation for patients with uremia?

Doctor's answer:

As the current situation shows, if uremia recurs with iron deficiency anemia or iron deficiency in the body, it is necessary to have appropriate iron supplementation. Oral ferrous lactate solution can be taken for treatment, which has relatively better effects. For uremia, blood dialysis should be used for treatment, which has relatively better effects. If uremia is caused by chronic nephritis, it is also necessary to cooperate with traditional Chinese medicine treatment.
