PPI in secondary hemochromatosis.
- Conditions
- Iron overload (secondary hemochromatosis) in non-transfusion dependent forms of hereditary anemias. Iron overload and hereditary anemia are a growing, underestimated emerging health care problem.MedDRA version: 20.0Level: LLTClassification code 10002272Term: AnemiaSystem Organ Class: 100000004851MedDRA version: 20.0Level: LLTClassification code 10057875Term: Secondary haemochromatosisSystem Organ Class: 100000004861MedDRA version: 20.0Level: HLTClassification code 10022979Term: Iron excessSystem Organ Class: 100000004861MedDRA version: 20.0Level: LLTClassification code 10055610Term: HemoglobinopathySystem Organ Class: 100000004850MedDRA version: 20.0Level: LLTClassification code 10074356Term: Non-transfusion dependent thalassemiaSystem Organ Class: 100000004850Therapeutic area: Diseases [C] - Blood and lymphatic diseases [C15]
