deferiprone and Acute Kidney Injury

deferiprone has been researched along with Acute Kidney Injury in 2 studies

Deferiprone: A pyridone derivative and iron chelator that is used in the treatment of IRON OVERLOAD in patients with THALASSEMIA.
deferiprone : A member of the class of 4-pyridones that is pyridin-4(1H)-one substituted at positions 1 and 2 by methyl groups and at position 3 by a hydroxy group. A lipid-soluble iron-chelator used for treatment of thalassaemia.

Acute Kidney Injury: Abrupt reduction in kidney function. Acute kidney injury encompasses the entire spectrum of the syndrome including acute kidney failure; ACUTE KIDNEY TUBULAR NECROSIS; and other less severe conditions.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Despite that many chelators inhibit FRD in vitro and in vivo, only Deferiprone (L1) has been shown to be effective and safe in the reversal of oxidative stress related tissue damage in iron overload and other conditions such as cardiomyopathy, acute kidney disease, Friedreich ataxia etc."4.90Antioxidant targeting by deferiprone in diseases related to oxidative damage.
