Anise Overview
Anise, also known as Pimpinella anisum, is an herb native to the eastern Mediterranean region and Southwest Asia. The seeds are known for their mildly sweet, licorice-like flavor. The main compound in anise responsible for the licorice-like taste and odor is anethole.
Anise seeds are often used in baking and liquors. It is especially popular during the winter holiday season. It has a long history of use in traditional medicine and has been used to treat a variety of conditions, including digestive problems, respiratory disorders, and insomnia. Anise is also used as a natural remedy for cough, sore throat, and other respiratory problems.
Ferric Carboxymaltose Overview
-
Ferric carboxymaltose injection is used to treat iron-deficiency anemia (a lower than normal number of red blood cells due to too little iron) in adults who cannot tolerate or who could not successfully be treated with iron supplements taken by mouth. This medication is also used to treat iron deficiency anemia in adults with chronic kidney disease (damage to the kidneys which may worsen over time and may cause the kidneys to stop working) who are not on dialysis. Ferric carboxymaltose injection is in a class of medications called iron replacement products. It works by replenishing iron stores so that the body can make more red blood cells.
