Dornase alfa is a biosynthetic form of human DNase I. The enzyme is involved in endonucleolytic cleavage of extracellular DNA to 5Â´-phosphodinucleotide and 5Â´-phosphooligonucleotide end products.It has no effect on intracellular DNA.tudies in rats indicate that, following aerosol administration, the disappearance half-life of dornase alfa from the lungs is 11 hours. In humans, sputum DNase levels declined below half of those detected immediately post-administration within 2 hours but effects on sputum rheology persisted beyond 12 hours.
It may also be used in anemic patients to reduce the need for blood transfusions before certain planned surgeries that have a high risk of blood loss (usually combined with the blood thinner warfarin). Epoetin alfa helps to reverse anemia. It works by signaling the bone marrow to make more red blood cells.
