Submitted by Carol Nwosu of Sickle Cell & Young Stroke Survivors – Deadline to sign up by: 13 December 2007 – Signatures: 392
Exjade has been trialled by children as young as 5 in the UK. The drug has been sucessful in removing excess iron from their bodies, now there is bickering amongst PCT's as to who should foot the bill for the children to stay on the drug. Leaving many others who were not part of the trial without a hope.
