Title: Epogen Alternative: Omontys
Post by: let.us.try on August 13, 2012, 11:01:24 PM

So the dialysis center I'm at wants to tryout this thing called Omontys. I don't know if it's good or bad. All I know is that it's new.

Has any been put on it? What were your experiences?

I haven't heard about it. I looked it up. Good news is it's only once a month. Bad news it hasn't been tested on dialysis patients and is not approved for CKD patients. Now doctors use drugs for unapproved reasons all the time but the point is they don't know if it will help.
