Recombinant human erythropoietin for injection (CHO cells)

Function and Efficacy

Erythropoietin is an active glycoprotein secreted by the kidneys. It acts on erythroid hematopoietic progenitor cells in the bone marrow and promotes their proliferation and differentiation. This product can induce a significant effect of stimulating colony formation through late-stage mother erythroid progenitor cells (CFUE). At high concentrations, this product can also stimulate early-stage mother erythroid progenitor cells (BFUE) to induce colony formation.

Indication

Anemia caused by renal insufficiency, including patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and non-dialysis patients.

Usage and Dosage

This product should be used under the guidance of a doctor. When used, add 1 ml of injection water to dissolve it and then inject it subcutaneously or intravenously. It should be administered 2 to 3 times a week. The dosage should be adjusted according to the patient's anemia degree, age and other relevant factors. Treatment period: The recommended dosage for hemodialysis patients is 100 to 150 IU/kg per week, and for peritoneal dialysis and non-dialysis patients is 75 to 100 IU/kg per week. If the hematocrit increases by less than 0.5 vol% per week, the dose can be increased by 15 to 30 IU/kg after 4 weeks, but the maximum increase should not exceed 30 IU/kg/week. The hematocrit should increase to 30 to 33 vol%, but should not exceed 36 vol% (34 vol%). Maintenance period: If the hematocrit reaches 30 to 33 vol% or/and the hemoglobin reaches 100 to 110 g/L, the maintenance treatment stage will be entered. It is recommended to adjust the dose to 2/3 of the therapeutic dose and then check the hematocrit every 2 to 4 weeks to adjust the dose, avoid excessive erythrocyte production, and maintain the hematocrit and hemoglobin at appropriate levels.

Blood system: With the increase of hematocrit, blood viscosity can increase significantly, so care should be taken to prevent thrombosis. 5. Liver: Occasionally, GOT and GPT may increase. 6. Gastrointestinal: Sometimes, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, diarrhea, etc. may occur.
