Buy Kineret in India — Price & Availability

What is Kineret used for?

Kineret (anakinra) is a recombinant form of the human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is a protein that drives inflammation; by blocking the IL-1 receptor, Kineret reduces the excess inflammation seen in certain autoinflammatory and rheumatic conditions.

It is approved for:

• Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) — to reduce signs and symptoms and slow structural joint damage in moderately to severely active RA in adults 18 years and older who have failed one or more disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). It can be used alone or with DMARDs other than TNF-blocking agents.
• Neonatal-Onset Multisystem Inflammatory Disease (NOMID) — a form of Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndromes (CAPS).
• Deficiency of Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist (DIRA).

It is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to E. coli-derived proteins or to any component of the product. It is a prescription medicine and must be used under the supervision of a qualified physician.

Recommended dosage:
Kineret is given as a subcutaneous (SC) injection, and the dose depends on the condition:

• Rheumatoid arthritis: 100 mg once daily, given at about the same time each day. A dose of 100 mg every other day may be considered for RA patients with severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease.
• NOMID: a weight-based starting dose of 1–2 mg/kg once daily, adjusted in 0.5–1 mg/kg increments to control disease, up to a maximum of 8 mg/kg daily. The daily dose may be split into two injections.
• DIRA: dosed by body weight as directed by the treating doctor.

Each prefilled syringe is single-use; a new syringe is used for each dose, and injection sites are rotated. The treating physician always determines the exact dose.

• Serious infections: Kineret has been associated with an increased risk of serious infections; it should not be started in patients with active infection, and treatment is discontinued in RA if a serious infection develops. The combination of Kineret with TNF-blocking agents is not recommended due to increased infection risk.
• Hypersensitivity reactions: allergic reactions can occur; DIRA patients may have an increased risk, particularly in the first several weeks.
• Injection-site amyloidosis: rotating injection sites is recommended to reduce the risk of injection-site amyloid deposits.
• Neutropenia: neutrophil counts are checked before starting and periodically during treatment.
• Immunosuppression and vaccines: live vaccines should not be given at the same time as Kineret.

Common side effects:
The most common side effects (incidence ≥ 5%) include injection-site reactions, along with headache, worsening of rheumatoid arthritis, and upper respiratory infections. This is not a complete list — refer to the full prescribing information and your doctor.

Patients in India can legally access Kineret through the Named Patient Program (NPP) — an import route that allows a medicine not yet registered in India to be imported in an individual patient’s name, on their physician’s prescription. The process is simple and fully documented:

• Share your request — the patient or treating doctor sends the medicine name, required quantity, and destination city.
• Eligibility & document check — we verify the prescription, diagnostic reports, and patient ID against regulatory requirements.
• Receive your quote — a transparent quotation covering medicine cost, logistics, and timeline.
• Regulatory approvals — we assist with the import permit and documentation needed for legal cross-border access.
• Cold-chain import & delivery — Kineret is sourced and shipped under validated 2–8 °C conditions to the patient or treating hospital.

Documents required to import Kineret:

• A valid prescription from a qualified physician
• The patient’s diagnostic reports
• Government-issued patient ID proof
• An import permit, where applicable

Because Kineret is not sold on the open market in India, there is no fixed MRP. The Kineret cost in India depends on a few factors at the time of import:

• The number of prefilled syringes required, which is based on the prescribed daily dose and treatment duration (in rheumatoid arthritis, the usual dose is 100 mg once daily; weight-based dosing applies in NOMID).
• The sourcing country and current ex-market price (USA, Europe, Canada, Japan, China, or Australia).
• Cold-chain logistics, insurance, and any applicable customs duties or import permit costs
