BADD_D00595 |
| Description |
Deferiprone is an oral iron chelator used as a second line agent in thalassemia syndromes when iron overload from blood transfusions occurs. Thalassemias are a type of hereditary anaemia due a defect in the production of hemoglobin. As a result, erythropoiesis, the production of new red blood cells, is impaired. FDA approved on October 14, 2011. |
| Indications and Usage |
Deferiprone is indicated in thalassemia syndromes when first line chelation agents are not adequate to treat transfusional iron overload. |
