Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Azacitidine is primarily used to treat myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It works by helping to restore normal growth of blood-forming cells in the bone marrow. Patients often ask, 'What is Azacitidine used for?' It is prescribed when the bone marrow does not produce enough healthy blood cells.

Side Effects

  • Azacitidine may cause mild to moderate side effects, including nausea, fatigue, or injection site reactions. Some users report temporary decreases in blood cell counts, which can lead to increased susceptibility to infections or bruising. These effects vary and should be monitored by a healthcare provider.
