Verified Ingredients and Effects

Uses:

Anaemia (in cancer and chronic kidney disease) 

Medicinal Benefits:

Zynesp 100 mcg Injection is a human-made form of naturally occurring erythropoiesis-stimulating protein or erythropoietin (a hormone produced by the kidney's specialized cells and is responsible for protecting red blood cells against destruction and also stimulates the cells of bone marrow to produce more amount of red blood cells). Deficiency of erythropoietin happens when a person is suffering from chronic kidney diseases, which in turn cause low red blood cells count causing anaemia.  This medicine is primarily indicated for treating anaemia (low red blood cell count) in persons with long-term serious (chronic) kidney disease and persons receiving chemotherapy for some types of cancer except for bone marrow or blood cells' cancer. Zynesp 100 mcg Injection contains a protein 'Darbepoetin alfa' which works by providing signals to the bone marrow to make more red blood cells.
