- Abstract
Background. Concomitant iron supplementation is required in the great majority of erythropoietin (Epo)‐treated patients with end‐stage renal failure. Intravenous (i.v.) iron supplementation has been demonstrated to be superior to oral iron therapy in Epo‐treated haemodialysis patients, but comparative data in iron‐replete peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients are lacking.
