Active ingredients

The drug ARANESP contains one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API):

1	Darbepoetin alfa UNII 15UQ94PT4P - DARBEPOETIN ALFA
	Darbepoetin alfa stimulates erythropoiesis by the same mechanism as the endogenous hormone. Darbepoetin alfa has five N-linked carbohydrate chains whereas the endogenous hormone and recombinant human erythropoietins (r-HuEPO) have three. The additional sugar residues are molecularly indistinct from those on the endogenous hormone. Due to its increased carbohydrate content darbepoetin alfa has a longer terminal half-life than r-HuEPO and consequently a greater in vivo activity.
