Medical Scientists Are Investigating New Drugs To Help People With Chronic Kidney Disease With Anemia

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious illness that affects the kidneys - organs which God created to filter waste products from the body. People who have CKD experience a gradual loss of kidney function which is often accompanied by a shortage of red blood cells.
Red blood cells transport oxygen and nutrients throughout the body, when these cells are lost, a person will become anemic. Oftentimes, physicians will prescribe iron pills or other medications that may help the red blood cells transport more oxygen, but they're not always successful.
Unfortunately there is no cure for CKD, the kidneys often continue to lose function over time.
But there is hope. Local doctors are investigating new medicines that may treat CKD anemia.
Perhaps you or someone you know is living with CKD. You could qualify to become a patient in a clinical trial which may offer new options for people with anemia.
As a CureClick Ambassador I want to share this information with my readers because it could be helpful for medically treating people who have CKD. Visit the research sponsor's website to learn more.

For those of you whom are not familiar with clinical trials, here's some information that you can use:
What Are Clinical Trials?
Clinical trials are research studies to determine whether investigational drugs or treatments are safe and effective for humans.
All investigational devices and medicines must undergo several clinical trials, often times these clinical trials require thousands of people.
Why participate in a clinical trial?
People whom are eligible will have access to new investigational treatments that would be available to the general public only upon approval.
People whom are eligible for clinical trials will also receive study-related medical care and attention from clinical staff at research facilities.
Clinical trials offer hope for many people and gives researchers a chance to find better treatment for others in the future.
