Overview
Medical Therapy
The ideal treatment for anemia of chronic disease is to treat the chronic disease successfully. Barring that, many patients with anemia of chronic disease simply live with the effects of the anemia as part of enduring the limits placed on them by other aspects of their underlying medical conditions. In more severe cases, transfusions or several versions of commercially-produced erythropoietin can be helpful in some circumstances; both approaches are costly.
