How to lower Iron content

Hello All!

I am writing on behalf of my cousin who lives in India. My cousin was 16 years old when she was first diagnosed with aplastic anemia. She underwent a grueling treatment for a year when she was finally cured by a mixture of ATG and cyclosporine. 9 years later she’s relapsed and has been suffering for the past one year with nothing working to improve her blood counts. Because of the continuous transfusions her iron content is 10900. Unfortunately she is allergic to deferasirox (EXJADE/ASUNRA). Any ideas/suggestions how to bring her iron level down?

Thanks in advance for all your answers.

Good luck to all the mighty warriors who are fighting this terrible disease.

Deepa
