M-A | Relative safety and effectiveness of different erythropoiesis‐stimulating agents for anemia in adults with CKD

Summary: The article reviewed the evidence on the safety and effectiveness of different epoetin drugs in treating anemia in people with chronic kidney disease. From the available research, it is uncertain whether various epoetin medications are superior or inferior to each other in terms of the probability of requiring a blood transfusion, mortality, experiencing a heart attack or stroke, developing a clot in a fistula or dialysis vascular catheter, or the likelihood of requiring dialysis for individuals with less severe kidney disease.*
