Anemia is a condition that develops when your red blood cell count or hemoglobin is less than normal, red blood cells carry oxygen to the body’s tissues. This condition is often associated with being tired and weak.
The method used to treat a patient’s anemia depends on the underlying cause of it. For types of anemia related to deficiencies in an individual’s diet, vitamin B12 or Iron Replacement Therapy may be prescribed. If the cause of a patient’s anemia is related to excessive blood loss, a blood transfusion would be the required treatment, in order to replace the lost blood.
Patients with kidney and liver-related types of anemias, may be treated with certain medications that help increase the production of healthy red blood cells.
Other cases when the patient’s anemia is caused by a tumor, a form of cancer, or impaired bone marrow, other procedures and approaches may be required to remedy it.
