Sodium ferric gluconate complex (brand name Ferrlecit by Sanofi) is an intravenously administered iron product. Ferrlecit is an iron complex. It works by providing the body with its necessary level of iron. Ferric gluconate has been shown to be effective in dialysis and non-dialysis associated anemia of chronic kidney disease (CKD). It has also been shown to be effective in improving responses to EPO in chemotherapy induced anemia.

Conditions:

Chlorhexidine is a broad-spectrum biocide effective against Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. It is used primarily as its salts (e.g., the dihydrochloride, diacetate, and digluconate). Chlorhexidine inactivates microorganisms with a broader spectrum than other antimicrobials (e.g. antibiotics) and has a quicker kill rate than other antimicrobials (e.g. povidone-iodine). It has both bacteriostatic (inhibits bacterial growth) and bactericidal (kills bacteria) mechanisms of action, depending on its concentration. Chlorhexidine kills by disrupting the cell membrane. The most common side effects associated with chlorhexidine gluconate oral rinses are: 1) an increase in staining of teeth and other oral surfaces; 2) an increase in calculus formation; and 3) an alteration in taste perception; 4) toothache; 5) upper respiratory tract infection; and 6) headache.
