Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Yes, iron infusion can cause red patches. I would recommend you to take antihistaminic like tablet Cetrizine twice daily for 2-3 days before and after taking the infusion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
