Introduction: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease-induced chronic inflammation may cause or aggravate co-morbid conditions. Anaemia is a significant comorbidity. Aim of this study: This study aims to diagnose iron-deficiency anaemia in COPD patients and assess the benefits of iron supplementation. Material & Methods: This was an 18-month interventional trial undertaken in the general medicine department of a tertiary care teaching hospital. The systematic process was followed to get the institutional ethics committee's approval. Results: The study population averaged 51.32 years. Most patients (68%) were between 51 and 60 years old. Out of 150 individuals, 29% had anaemia, and 121% were non-anaemic. Conclusion: Anaemia and iron deficiency are significant comorbidities in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), according to the Indian Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Biomarkers (JPCB) published in 2012.
