Per cosa si usa
Come agisce
Hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor. Reversible HIF-PH inhibition raises endogenous erythropoietin, regulates iron transporter proteins and reduces hepcidin, improving iron availability and increasing Hb production and red cell mass.

Symptomatic anaemia of CKD, ESA-naive: 70 mg orally three times per week (not on consecutive days) if under 100 kg; 100 mg three times per week if 100 kg or over.

Chi deve prestare attenzione
- Cardiovascular and mortality risk is estimated as comparable to ESA therapy; in non-dialysis patients the risk versus placebo could not be estimated. Converting stable ESA-treated dialysis patients only with a valid clinical reason.
- Thrombotic vascular events (DVT, PE, cerebral infarction, vascular access thrombosis) occur; weigh risk especially with obesity or prior TVE; avoid Hb above 12 g/dL or a rise above 2 g/dL over 4 weeks.
- Seizures: use with caution in patients with a history of seizures, epilepsy or CNS infections.
