[Asia Economy Reporter Jo In-kyung] The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety announced on the 18th that it has approved JW Pharmaceutical's 'Enaroy Tablet (Enarodustat),' developed as an anemia treatment for patients with kidney disease.


Enaroy Tablet is a medication that treats anemia occurring in adult patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. It promotes red blood cell production by inhibiting prolyl hydroxylase, an enzyme that degrades the protein 'hypoxia-inducible factor,' which is responsible for producing red blood cells.



The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety stated that it will strive to ensure that treatments with confirmed safety and efficacy are supplied promptly, thereby expanding treatment opportunities for patients.
