Jesduvroq is a HIF-PH inhibitor used to treat anemia due to chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adults who’ve been on dialysis for at least 4 months.

Jesduvroq is a hypoxia-inducible factor–prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH) inhibitor. It helps prevent your body from breaking down HIF, a protein that responds to low oxygen. HIF triggers the production of different hormones, including erythropoietin (EPO), which sends a signal to your body to make more red blood cells. This helps to treat anemia and ultimately avoid the need for blood transfusions.

Your provider will determine your dose of Jesduvroq based on your hemoglobin level, liver function, and other medications. The maximum daily dose is 24 mg daily.
