Anaemia is a condition in which you don't have enough healthy red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to the body's tissues. Having anaemia may make you feel tired and weak. There are many forms of anaemia, each with its own cause. Anaemia can be temporary or long term, and it can range from mild to severe.

A hematinic is a nutrient required for the formation of blood cells in the process of hematopoiesis. The main hematinics are iron, B12, and folate. Deficiency in hematinics can lead to anaemia. In cases of hematinic deficiency, hematinics can be administered as medicines, in order to increase the haemoglobin content of the blood.

Erythropoietin (EPO) is a hormone that stimulates erythropoiesis, which can also be given as a medicine to increase the haemoglobin content of the blood, but EPO is not classified as a hematinic as it is not considered a nutrient, but a hormone.
