SM Distributors supplies thalassemia centres, haematology departments and hospital pharmacies across Pakistan. Our range covers iron chelation, anticoagulants, anaemia treatment and blood cancer therapy, with planned deliveries for lifelong care.
This page explains which hematology medicines we supply, how we store them and how centres order. Use it to plan steady supply for patients who depend on daily treatment.
Thalassemia is one of the most common inherited blood disorders in Pakistan. Thalassemia major is the severe form, and it needs regular blood transfusions from early childhood. Reports in 2025 estimated 5,000 to 6,000 affected births every year and around 10 million carriers.
Regular transfusions load the body with iron, which damages the heart and liver over time. Iron chelation therapy removes this extra iron and continues every day for life. A missed supply cycle puts young patients at real risk.

Availability depends on manufacturer supply and DRAP registration. Ask our team for current stock, strengths and lead times.
Iron chelation therapy uses medicines that bind excess iron so the body can remove it. Transfusion dependent patients, including children with thalassemia, take it daily.
Anticoagulants are medicines that prevent harmful blood clots. Hospitals use them to treat thrombosis and to protect patients after surgery.
Haematinics are medicines that help the body build healthy red blood cells. They treat iron deficiency and vitamin related anaemias.
Bleeding disorders such as haemophilia stop blood from clotting normally. Factor concentrates have limited registration in Pakistan, so we confirm each request with partner manufacturers.
Blood cancers such as leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma need specialist medicines. We supply them alongside our oncology range.

Iron chelation therapy removes the excess iron that builds up from repeated blood transfusions. Without chelation, iron damages the heart, liver and hormone glands over time. Patients with thalassemia major usually start in early childhood and continue for life.
