恩瑞格入医保没？

It is the first oral iron chelator approved by the FDA for routine use in 2005. Oral suspension and dispersible tablets are available in the United States. It is approved for the treatment of chronic iron overload caused by blood transfusion in adult and pediatric patients 2 years and older and chronic iron overload in patients with non-transfusion-dependent thalassemia (NTDT) syndrome 10 years and older.

In 2010, Enrego dispersible tablets were approved for marketing in China. So, is Enrego included in the medical insurance?

According to Medical Companion Travel, although Enrig is already on the market in China, it has not yet been officially included in medical insurance. Patients who want to buy cheap Enrig can buy foreign versions!

Novartis of Switzerland imports Enrig in India, the specification is 400mg*30 tablets/box, and the price is about $700.

The specification of Enriga produced by Indian pharmaceutical factory is 500*30 tablets/box, and the price is about 500$. Due to the fluctuation of exchange rate, the price will be different. Please consult the medical companion tour for the specific price! 

Thalassemia is a rare hereditary disease. In addition to iron removal and blood transfusion, the vast majority of patients in China use oral dispersible tablets of Enrego as treatment. The safety and convenience of oral Enriga treatment are far better than blood transfusion, and the side effects are also smaller.

Deferasirox is clinically used for patients with iron accumulation due to the need for long-term blood transfusions (such as those with thalassemia or other rare anemias). It is a new type of ferric iron chelator with high oral absorption rate. The drug metabolism half-life is 8 to 16 hours. The blood drug peak is reached at 24 hours. The concentration reaches a stable state after 3 days. After metabolism, it is mainly excreted in the feces.

It is a life-saving drug for patients with thalassemia. Although blood transfusion and iron removal may alleviate the progression of the condition, the effect is not as obvious as Enrig. Furthermore, Enrig is more convenient to take and will not cause too much discomfort to the patient.
