Abstrakt: Our findings suggest that treating antepartum anemia with currently available iron therapies would result in significant cost-savings and reductions in adverse outcomes associated with anemia in this context. Ferric carboxymaltose likely confers the greatest overall benefit among competing options. This conclusion is robust to uncertainty, even when the cost these therapies is significantly higher than is demonstrated in the literature.
