JADENU is a strength-adjusted formulation of deferasirox with higher bioavailability compared to EXJADE dispersible tablets. JADENU requires a different dosing regimen and method of administration compared to EXJADE. To avoid dosing errors, it is important that prescriptions of deferasirox specify both the type of formulation (dispersible tablet or film-coated tablet) and the prescribed dose in mg/kg/day.
