According to available information, esmolol hydrochloride injection is primarily indicated for supraventricular tachycardia or non-compensatory sinus tachycardia, as well as intraoperative and postoperative tachycardia and/or hypertension. Data from MeneNet show that the main market for esmolol hydrochloride injection is at the level of public medical institutions—specifically urban public hospitals, county-level public hospitals, urban community health centers, and township health clinics—and in 2022 it ranked second among injectable antihypertensive drugs, maintaining a steady growth trend over the past five years. Deferasirox is mainly used in patients who develop iron overload due to long-term blood transfusions, such as those with thalassemia or other rare forms of anemia.
