2. Screening Hb ≥7 g/dL to <10 g/dL.

3. Infants with any of the following conditions:

• Heart failure with IDA defined as syndromes of excessive preload, excessive afterload, abnormal rhythm, or decreased contractility

• Gastrointestinal diseases with acquired short bowel syndrome (due to volvulus, necrotizing enterocolitis from surgical resection or spontaneous intestinal perforation)

6. Active infection.

7. Anemia due to reasons other than iron deficiency (e.g., hemoglobinopathy vitamin B12 deficiency, or folic acid deficiency).

8. Blood transfusion in the 4 weeks prior to consent.

9. Administration of an iron-containing product within 14 days of administration of the study article.
