DESCRIPTION

Erythropoietin Injection is used to replace the erythropoietin that is lacking in people who can't make enough, usually because their kidneys are not working properly. Erythropoietin is used to treat anemia in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), whether or not they are on dialysis.

Erythropoietin is produced naturally in the body, mostly by the kidneys. It gives bone marrow the signal to produce red blood cells (RBCs), which carry oxygen in the blood. Erythropoietin works by causing increased red blood cell production by the body. If the body does not produce enough erythropoietin, severe anemia (lack of oxygen reaching the different parts of the body) can occur.Erythropoietin is also used to treat people with cancer who develop anemia because of chemotherapy treatment.Erythropoietin is also used to treat anemia before certain surgeries and for people with HIV who are taking the medication zidovudine
