Anemia Treatment

Specific treatment for anemia will be determined by your doctor based on the following:

  • Your age, overall health, and medical history
  • The extent of the anemia
  • The type of anemia
  • Cause of the anemia
  • Your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
  • Expectations for the course of the anemia
  • Your opinion or preference

Anemia can be difficult to treat and may include:

  • Vitamin and mineral supplements
  • Change in diet
  • Medication and/or discontinuing causative medications
  • Treatment of the causative disorder
  • Surgery to remove spleen (if related to hemolytic anemia)
  • Blood transfusions, if necessary (to replace significant loss)
  • Antibiotics (if infection is causative agent) 
  • Bone marrow transplant (for aplastic anemia)
