Aranesp stimulates your bone marrow to make more red blood cells. Having more red blood cells raises your hemoglobin level.
The active ingredient of Aranesp is darbepoetin alfa that works in exactly the same way as the natural hormone erythropoietin. It will take your body a short time to make red blood cells, so it will be about 4 weeks before you notice any effect. If you are on dialysis, your normal dialysis routine will not affect the ability of Aranesp to treat your anaemia. Your doctor may have prescribed Aranesp for another reason.
