Uses of Oxemia Tablet

Benefits of Oxemia Tablet

Treatment of Anemia due to chronic kidney disease
Anemia is a condition where your body does not have enough red blood cells to carry oxygen around your body. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) refers to the loss of normal kidney function over a long span of time. CKD progresses gradually over a few years but may become permanent if left untreated. CKD can lead to anemia. Oxemia 50 Tablet can boost your levels of red blood cells and reduce the symptoms of anemia, such as tiredness and weakness. Taking this medicine improves the quality of life.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How to use Oxemia Tablet

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Oxemia 50 Tablet is to be taken on an empty stomach.

How Oxemia Tablet works

Oxemia 50 Tablet works by inhibiting hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH) enzymes, which stabilizes hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF).

Frequently asked questions

Oxemia 50 Tablet is an oral medicine given for the treatment of anemia in adults with chronic kidney disease, who are either on dialysis or not yet on dialysis. It is a prescription medicine approved in India and can be taken only under the advice and guidance of a doctor.
Chronic kidney disease or CKD is a condition in which the kidneys are damaged and lose their ability to filter blood. As a result, excess waste or toxins remain in the body and may cause other health problems. Some of the risk factors of kidney disease are high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, and a family history of kidney failure.
Your doctor may advise you to take a blood test to find out if you have kidney disease. The test measures the amount of waste product called creatinine in your blood. The doctor will use the blood test results, your age, gender, weight, and ethnic group to calculate how many milliliters of waste your kidneys should be able to filter in a minute. This calculation is known as your estimated glomerular filtration rate or eGFR. Healthy kidneys should be able to filter more than 90 mL/min. You may have kidney disease if your rate is lower than this.
You are at risk for kidney disease if you have high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, or a family history of kidney failure. If you have risk factors, it is advisable to get tested for kidney disease and protect your kidneys by changing your diet, lifestyle and controlling your blood pressure and blood glucose levels.
Your kidneys make an important hormone called erythropoietin (EPO) that tells your body to make red blood cells. When you have kidney disease, kidneys fail to make enough EPO. Low EPO levels cause a drop in your red blood cell count leading to anemia.
The risk for anemia increases when kidney disease gets worse. People with CKD who also have diabetes are at a greater risk for developing anemia, tend to develop anemia earlier, and often have more severe anemia than people with CKD who do not have diabetes. Apart from this, people aged over 60 years are also more likely to have anemia with CKD.
Some of the symptoms of anemia with CKD include fatigue, dizziness, pale skin, headache, body ache, shortness of breath, and fast or irregular heartbeats.
In people with CKD, severe anemia can increase the risk of developing heart problems and strokes because of low oxygen levels in the body, which results from the decreasing level of red blood cells in the body.
