Summary

Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) is a prevalent global health issue affecting a significant proportion of the population, including children. While daily oral iron supplementation is a common approach to treat IDA, concerns regarding side effects and compliance have led to exploration of alternative dosing schedules, such as every-other-day. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of daily versus every other day oral iron supplementation in the management of IDA in pediatric patients.
