Kidney Disease Medicine

Zyrop 10000 Injection belongs to the group of hormones used in the treatment of chronic anaemia and anaemic states seen in kidney disease, cancers, patients on chemotherapy, bone marrow disorders, and those due to undergo major bone surgery. Anaemia refers to low blood counts due to a deficiency of the blood component haemoglobin, resulting in a reduced oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. Zyrop 10000 Injection contains Recombinant Human Erythropoietin Alfa, which works by stimulating the bone marrow to produce more red blood cells, thereby correcting low blood counts and anaemia. In some cases, Zyrop 10000 Injection may cause specific common side effects such as vomiting, diarrhoea, fever, and nasal congestion. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects consistently. Please inform the doctor of your detailed medical history, including hypertension, heart disease, heart attack, stroke, epilepsy, cancer, liver disease, thromboembolism, porphyria and/or pure red cell aplasia (where the bone marrow cannot produce enough RBCs). Consult your doctor before taking Zyrop 10000 Injection during pregnancy and nursing. Store this medicine at 2°C-8°C. Do not freeze.
