Abstract

Abstract The present invention relates to a process for preparing a polymer which is suitable for being administered parenterally from a saccharide, a polyhydric alcohol and a polymerization agent and to the polymer prepared therefrom. The invention relates also to an iron preparation suitable for parenteral intramuscular and intravenous - injection, to a process for the preparation of the iron preparation, and to the use of the injectable iron preparations in human and veterinary medicine.
