Abstract

Deferasirox (Exjade, ICL670) is a potent iron chelator, recently approved as first-line therapy for the treatment of blood-transfusion-related iron overload. Iron deposition in the heart may lead to cardiac dysfunction in patients with iron overload. Thus, the combination of cardiac glycosides and deferasirox is likely to be used in clinical practice.
