Overview of Anfoe 10000 IU Injection (Recombinant Human Erythropoietin Alfa/ Epoetin Alfa):

Anfoe 10000 IU Injection contains Recombinant Human Erythropoietin Alfa/ Epoetin Alfa, a synthetic protein that stimulates red blood cell production in the body.

Anemia occurs when there are insufficient red blood cells (RBCs) in the body. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) often leads to anemia as the kidneys lose their ability to produce adequate erythropoietin, a hormone responsible for RBC production. Certain cancers, like leukemia or lymphoma, and cancer treatments such as chemotherapy can also cause anemia due to the destruction of RBCs. This medicine is available through pharmacies and should only be used as prescribed by a healthcare provider.
