Mechanism of Action: The injection works by stimulating the bone marrow (soft tissue inside the bones) to produce more red blood cells, which increases the body's oxygen-carrying capacity and helps to treat anemia.
Uses: It is primarily used to manage anemia in various conditions, including:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially in patients on dialysis.
Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.
Patients receiving treatment for HIV infection with zidovudine.
To reduce the need for blood transfusions during certain major elective surgeries.
Administration: The injection is administered either subcutaneously (under the skin) or intravenously (into a vein) by a healthcare professional. In some cases, patients may be trained for self-administration at home, following strict medical guidance.
Storage: The medication must be stored in a refrigerator at 2C to 8C (36F to 46F), but it should not be frozen. It should be allowed to reach room temperature before use.
Important Considerations and Side Effects
Common Side Effects: Nausea, vomiting, fever, headache, muscle/joint pain, dizziness, and increased blood pressure are common side effects.
Serious Side Effects: This medicine can cause serious side effects, including severe high blood pressure, seizures (fits), and blood clots that require urgent medical attention.
Precautions: Before using, a doctor should be informed about the patient's full medical history, especially if they have uncontrolled high blood pressure, heart disease, a history of blood clots, or liver disease. Regular monitoring of blood pressure and blood tests (hemoglobin, iron levels) is necessary during treatment.
This is a prescription medication and should only be used under the supervision and direction of a qualified healthcare professional.
