Product Overview
About Abseamed
Abseamed can only be obtained with a prescription and treatment must be started under the supervision of a doctor who has experience in the management of patients with the conditions that Abseamed is used for.
What it is used for
Abseamed is used for patients with chronic kidney failure, myelodysplastic syndromes, or receiving chemotherapy, to keep haemoglobin levels within the recommended range.
How it is used
Abseamed is available in pre-filled syringes of various strengths and is given as an injection into a vein or as an injection under the skin, depending on the condition for which the patient is being treated.
The dose, the frequency of injection and how long it is used for also depend on why Abseamed is being used and on the patient’s bodyweight, and are adjusted according to how well the medicine is working.
For patients who give injections under the skin, they should have been appropriately trained to do so.
How it works
The active substance in Abseamed, epoetin alfa, is a copy of a hormone called erythropoietin, and works in exactly the same way as the natural hormone to stimulate the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow.
