Abstract

Pharmacologic therapy for anemia is oriented toward (1) providing components needed for red blood cell production (vitamin B12 and folic acid), including hemoglobin synthesis (iron and other minerals), and (2) stimulating bone marrow formation of red blood cells. Drugs used to stimulate bone marrow activity will be the focus of this article.

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
