Generic Exjade 500mg Tablet contains Deferasirox as its active ingredient. Deferasirox is an active chelator selective to iron as the iron ion Fe3+ has a high affinity to binding at a 2:1 ratio. It is a medication used to lower iron levels in the blood. Two molecules of Deferasirox bind with one atom of iron, forming a stable complex molecule that does not harm the body and passes through the kidneys and out through the individual's urine. It works for treating iron toxicity.
