Asunra is available in Pakistan and there is no reason that you can't take it. With a ferritin of 7000, I would suggest taking both desferal and Asunra. Your doctor is confused about what "older" patients means. There is a high death rate in Exjade users who are quite old, >60, and who have a different disorder. At your age, you should have no concerns. You do need to be much more aggressive with your chelation, Take 200 mg vitamin C when you begin desferal, as this will aid iron remoaval. Don't take more than 250 mg daily.
Hi Andy,
My son is taking Exjade ( 2 tablets 2 times), his ferritin is about 1100. So that does he need to take Vit C ? When and how many per time will be good?
Tks so much.
