Darbepoetin Alfa
A hyperglycosylated engineered form of erythropoietin with a longer half-life than epoetin alfa, used to stimulate red blood cell production in patients with anemia from chronic kidney disease or chemotherapy. Its modified carbohydrate structure allows less frequent dosing.

آلية العمل
Selectively blocks angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptors, preventing the vasoconstrictive and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II. This results in vasodilation, reduced sodium retention, and decreased blood pressure.
