Abstract
Deferasirox (ExjadeA, ICL670) is a new, once-daily oral iron chelator, recently approved as first-line therapy in the treatment of iron overload resulting from blood transfusions. In registration studies, deferasirox tablets were dispersed in non-carbonated water prior to administration. In routine clinical practice, however, patients may prefer to take the tablet dispersed in a flavored drink rather than with water.
