Exjade in India

I received the following information in an email about the upcoming release of Exjade in India. Contact information is included. I would just like to remind everyone that is essential that Exjade be taken ONLY under a doctor's REGULAR supervision, with adequate monitoring of kidney and liver levels.


We expect Tab.Asunra ( globally known as Exjade) will
begin to be available in the India during the second
quarter of 2008
 
Please consult your physician in the first week of
April

Hello,

The excretion of iron using Asunra aka Exjade is thorugh bowl movement and not through urine. You should not expect any change is urine color. Try to keep regular and best of luck.
