How do you treat anemia in dialysis patients?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If you are detected with anemia during dialysis it is treated with medications because diet alone cannot meet your iron needs. The drug is called erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). ESAs replace the EPO that is low in people with kidney failure, so they can make red blood cells.
