What is Jadenu?

Jadenu binds to iron and removes it from the bloodstream.

Jadenu is used to treat iron overload caused by blood transfusions in adults and children at least 2 years old.

Jadenu is also used to treat chronic iron overload syndrome caused by a genetic blood disorder in adults and children who are at least 10 years old.

Jadenu may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
