Deferoxamine(Cat No.:I006422)is a potent iron-chelating agent widely used in treating iron overload disorders, such as those in patients with thalassemia receiving frequent blood transfusions. By binding excess iron in the bloodstream, deferoxamine prevents iron from accumulating in vital organs, reducing the risk of damage to the heart, liver, and endocrine glands. It also has applications in managing aluminum toxicity in patients with chronic kidney disease. Administered via injection, deferoxamine is essential in preventing complications related to iron toxicity, thereby improving long-term health outcomes in affected patients.
