About Mircera 50mcg Injection
Mircera 50mcg Injection belongs to a class of drugs known as erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA). Mircera 50mcg Injection is primarily used to treat anaemia (lack of haemoglobin in blood) due to chronic kidney disease in adults and children over five years.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Anaemia: Anaemia is described as reduced levels of haemoglobin and red blood cells (RBCs) in the blood. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients slowly develop anaemia, which worsens as the disease progresses. Then the kidneys partially lose their functions permanently in CKD. There is insufficient erythropoietin (hormone formed by kidneys and produced RBC) formation. This hormone helps the production of RBCs by the bone marrow. As a result, RBCs production is affected, leading to fewer RBCs than normal.
