Oxemia 50mg Tablet (Desidustat)
Medicine OverView
Oxemia 50mg Tablet contains Desidustat, an oral medication used for the treatment of anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It works by stimulating the body’s natural process of red blood cell production, helping to improve hemoglobin levels and reduce symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath.
Anemia in CKD occurs because damaged kidneys are unable to produce sufficient erythropoietin, a hormone responsible for red blood cell formation. Oxemia Tablet offers an effective oral alternative to injectable treatments by activating the body's own erythropoietin production.
Desidustat belongs to a class of medicines known as hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH) inhibitors. These medicines help regulate oxygen-sensing pathways and improve iron metabolism, making them highly effective in anemia management.
This medicine should be used under medical supervision with regular monitoring to ensure safe and effective treatment.
Oxemia 50mg Tablet is prescribed for the management of anemia related to kidney disease.
It is suitable for both dialysis and non-dialysis patients with CKD.
Oxemia Tablet provides multiple benefits in managing anemia effectively.
Its oral formulation increases patient compliance compared to injectable therapies.
Desidustat works by inhibiting prolyl hydroxylase enzymes, which stabilizes hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF). This leads to increased production of erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates the bone marrow to produce red blood cells.
It also enhances iron absorption and utilization, improving oxygen delivery throughout the body.
This mechanism closely mimics the body’s natural response to low oxygen levels, making it effective for anemia treatment.
