Responding to COVID-19

COVID-19 is a significant concern for many in the bleeding disorders community and beyond. At Takeda, our highest priority is the health and safety of our community during this uncertain time.

First and foremost, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider to discuss any questions regarding your condition and COVID-19. In addition, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) website includes information on things like COVID-19 symptoms, how to protect yourself and others from the virus, and who may be at higher risk for complications due to the virus. The National Hemophilia Foundation and the Hemophilia Federation of America have also put together helpful pages with COVID-related resources for people living with bleeding disorders.

Focusing on your finances

Living with a bleeding disorder will likely impact how you manage your finances. Knowing what to consider when making money-related decisions can make it easier to manage your personal resources.

Infusing factor replacement: home or self infusion

Have you and your doctor decided that infusing factor at home as a part of your treatment regimen is right for you? If so, you may be feeling more independent—and ready to learn more. This resource contains content, tips, and tools to support you in your transition to home or self infusion. This infusion resource does not replace your hemophilia treatment center (HTC) or your doctor.

Talking with your healthcare provider

Starting a conversation with your healthcare provider about your bleeding disorder or treatment isn't always easy, but our tools can help you get started on the right foot.
