Decitabine is a medication aligned to the HCPCS J Code: J0893 for billing, pricing, and reimbursement purposes in the United States. Classified under Oncology, it is administered via the intravenous route and manufactured by Sun Pharma.
According to CMS Drug Use Information: This medication is used to treat a group of blood/bone marrow disorders (myelodysplastic syndromes-MDS) in which the bone marrow does not produce enough healthy blood cells. People with MDS may have problems such as infections, anemia, and easy bleeding/bruising. Decitabine is a chemotherapy drug. It is believed to work by helping your bone marrow grow normal blood cells so you will need fewer blood transfusions. Decitabine also kills abnormal blood cells that have grown too fast and do not work properly.
