Post by: shrikant on August 07, 2013, 12:16:09 PM

Hello, I am shrikant from INDIA ,I am 23 year old , I am on transfussion from last 20 years. My iron level is 1500 and was on kelfer (3 gms per day) , recently from last 2 months shifted on " DEFRIJET 500"( 1.5 gms per day). Had a very bad side effect   of kelfer over  my joints .The opinion of  Dr's is to replace them in near future.
 IF any one have information on DEFRIJET 500 then plz share it with me.
