WHAT DEFERASIROX MYLAN IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT DEFERASIROX MYLAN IS
Deferasirox Mylan contains an active substance called deferasirox. It
is an iron chelator which is a
medicine used to remove the excess iron from the body (also called
iron overload). It traps and
removes excess iron which is then excreted mainly in the stools.
WHAT DEFERASIROX MYLAN IS USED FOR
Repeated blood transfusions may be necessary in patients with various
types of anaemia (for example
thalassaemia, sickle cell disease or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS)).
However, repeated blood
transfusions can cause a build-up of excess iron. This is because
blood contains iron and your body
does not have a natural way to remove the excess iron you get with
your blood transfusions. In patients
with non-transfusion-dependent thalassaemia syndromes, iron overload
may also develop over time,
mainly due to increased absorption of dietary iron in response to low
blood cell counts. Over time, the
excess iron can dam
