Erythropoietin Health Feed

Yes definitely 1botttole this moth and next moth 2nd not more than that. Please chek cbc on 15days interval.

What are the results of kidney function test means urea and creatinine. You know erythropoietn is prepared by kidney and in kidney failure this substance deficit. So we have to give from outside.
You can discuss further on line.

Firstly, it has been recommended to check for vitamin b12 defficiency and other diseases if she has already. For this vitamin b12 level should be tested in blood. If these two points are okay, then she will be diagnosed as having myelodysplastic syndrome. Mds are conditions that occur when the blood forming cells in the bone marrow are abnormal. It is considered as a type of cancer. So better not to delay and start the treatment. The treatment plan consists of supportive care, drug therapy and c...more

Wepox contains erythropoietin, which is a standard medication to increase hemoglobin in dialysis patients. If you are responding to it , you can continue using it.

Hi,
Definitely reports are not OK. We call this condition as polycythemia. It needs complete evaluation with detailed history (including history of smoking), examination and some laboratory tests (such as S. Erythropoietin level).

Hi Lybrate user. The reason for anemia in dialysis as well as nondialytic CKD patients is deficiency of a hormone called erythropoietin which stimulates the formation of red blood cells and deficiency of iron. Home based remedies can only provide a liitle bit of increased iron in the patient's diet, but can not completely improve the deficiency of iron and have no effect on erythropoietin. Hence it is important in most patients on dialysis to take erythropoietin injections as well as iron supple...more

Dear reasons are clearly known...your dad is having chronic kidney disease stage 4 or 5 depending upon creatinine clearance ..he requires dialysis urgently...low hb is part of ckd that requires treatment with erythropoietin hormones..it'll be cured then

Your hemoglobin count is very high. This may clog small blood vessels and cause stroke. You need to rule out kidney disease that may raise erythropoietin. You also need to rule out OSA or sleep apnea. For detailed discussion call me after a online appointment through Lybrate.

If anemia is observed, RDW test results are often used together with mean corpuscular volume (MCV) results to determine the possible causes of the anemia.
Increased RBC can be linked to secondary causes, such as, chronic hypoxia or tumors releasing erythropoietin. Polycythemia vera is due to abnormally increased red cell production in the bone marrow.

It is a disease. Where it needs workup like Complete Hemogram, Erythropoietin levels, Jak2 studies to rule to Polycythemia Vera and rule out secondary causes of Polycythemia. Please, don't donate blood.
