Erytrust 2000Iu/0.5Ml Inj

Erytrust 2000Iu/0.5Ml Inj belongs to a class of drugs known as erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) primarily used to treat anaemia (lack of haemoglobin in blood) due to chronic kidney disease and anaemia due to chemotherapy (cancer treatment). Anaemia is reduced levels of haemoglobin and red blood cells (RBCs) in the blood. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients slowly develop anaemia, which gets worse as the disease progresses. Also, the treatment of cancer, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, causes anaemia in cancer patients.

Erytrust 2000Iu/0.5Ml Inj contains ‘Erythropoietin alfa, human recombinant’. Erytrust 2000Iu/0.5Ml Inj works by stimulating the bone marrow (soft tissue within the bones that makes red blood cells) to make more red blood cells. This Erytrust 2000Iu/0.5Ml Inj is very similar to the natural substance in the body known as erythropoietin (hormone formed by kidneys and produced RBC), preventing anaemia (lack of haemoglobin and RBC in the blood).

Erytrust 2000Iu/0.5Ml Inj will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. You may experience high blood pressure, nausea, vomiting and fever.

This Erytrust 2000Iu/0.5Ml Inj is very similar to the natural substance in the body known as erythropoietin (hormone formed by kidneys and produced RBC) which prevents anemia (lack of hemoglobin and RBC in the blood). Besides this Erytrust 2000Iu/0.5Ml Inj is also used for the treatment of anemia caused by a medicine known as zidovudine for the treatment of HIV (human immunodeficiency viruses). Erytrust 2000Iu/0.5Ml Inj also decreases the requirement for blood cell transfusions.

Anemia due to chronic kidney disease: Anemia describes reduced levels of hemoglobin and red blood cells (RBCs) in the blood. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients slowly develop anemia, which gets worse as the disease progresses. Then the kidneys partially lose their functions permanently in CKD. There is not sufficient erythropoietin (hormone formed by kidneys and produced RBC) formation. This hormone helps the production of RBCs by the bone marrow. As a result, RBC production is affected, leading to fewer RBCs than normal.

Anemia due to chemotherapy: Some types of cancer that affect blood and bone marrow, like blood cancer, and bone marrow cancer can decrease red blood cells. Also, the treatment of cancer, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, causes anemia in cancer patients. This happens when a few medicines or radiation kill the red blood cells with the cancerous cells.
