Cuba Implements Strategy against Kidney Diseases
Monday, September 24, 2018



Havana.- The Cuban health system is implementing a comprehensive strategy to deal with kidney diseases, with emphasis on the production of major drugs in the country.

For two decades, Cuba has produced the Recombinant Human Erythropoietin, a biotechnological product with the highest impact against chronic kidney disease.

Thanks to its use, blood transfusions are avoided, together with the cardiovascular benefits and improvement of cognitive functions reported by clinical trials.

The program improves the patient's abilities to make physical efforts, work, sexual activity, appetite and the normalization of sleep and wakefulness patterns.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 10-15 percent of the world's adult population and is a public health problem, due to the high costs of treatments.
