Mode of Action
Darbepoetin alfa is a biosynthetic form of erythropoietin. Recombinant human erythropoietin with sialic acid additions to enhance stability; stimulates erythropoiesis via division & differentation of progenitor cells in bone marrow to induce the release of reticulocytes from the bone marrow into the bloodstream to become erythrocytes.
