Product Overview
Rytstat 100mg Tablet is a prescription medicine used to treat anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and anemia caused by cancer chemotherapy. It works by stimulating the hormone erythropoietin, which encourages your body to produce more red blood cells, improving oxygen transport and reducing symptoms of anemia.
This medicine should be used under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional, as careful monitoring is needed to ensure safe and effective treatment.
Uses
-
Anemia due to chronic kidney disease
-
Anemia caused by cancer chemotherapy
Benefits
Anemia occurs when the body does not have enough red blood cells to carry oxygen efficiently. In CKD, the kidneys gradually lose their ability to produce erythropoietin, leading to low red blood cell counts. Rytstat 100mg Tablet helps restore red blood cell levels, reducing fatigue, weakness, and other symptoms of anemia, thereby improving overall quality of life.

Take Rytstat 100mg Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole; do not chew, crush, or break it. It may be taken with or without food, but try to take it at the same time each day for consistency.

How It Works
