Hello there! Great AMA. I fully support your work and research. I have been a veterinary assistant at a small animal emergency/specialty hospital for about a year and a half and am nearly done with my pre requisites for veterinary school. I spend a lot of time shadowing our internal medicine team as that is my primary interest. My question for you since I have so little experience with the current drugs out there is what is the known incidence of side effects using the human drugs? I know of at least three IM patients in our practice who have done well on darbopoetin, but as I am not always able to be present for their visits I have no idea about their progress at home, etc, over the long term.

More of a "just wondering" sort of Q! Thanks!!

Wow, thank you! This is fascinating. I appreciate your taking the time to answer. Good luck with your research!
