Abstract EN

We report the case of a 45-year-old female patient who developed phosphate diabetes after administration of ferric carboxymaltose.

Ten days after the second dose, she complained of intense fatigue and blood analysis showed a phosphate plasma level of 0.93 mg/dL with phosphate excretion rate of 23%.

She received phosphate supplementation which resulted in phosphate clearance improvement which persisted for two months.

We reviewed other cases described in the literature and would draw attention to this rare but potentially life-threatening side effect.
