New Delhi, Dec 12 (UNI) The patients suffering with Sickle Cell Anaemia (SCD) -- a hereditary blood disorder threatening life of around 350 million people worldwide may now get a new lease of life.
A Delhi based pharmaceutical company, Sai Phytoceuticals, has become the first organisation to introduce a herbal remedy for this life threatening disease in India.
SCD is a genetic disorder inherited form parents genes and is a condition in which there aren't enough healthy red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen throughout our body. The polymerisation happens in the DNA and the Red blood cell becomes sickle which obstructs the flow of red blood cells to carry oxygen to various organs in the body resulting in their damage and unbearable pain.
