IHi and welcome. I am not sure what is contained in DOXOVAt tablet?? Your dad seems to be on two erythropoietin preparations (Wepox and Mercera) which is usual - both have the same effect, hence why prescribe together? Kindly check this with your nephrologist. The key is to ask ur doctor as to why ur dad's kidneys are working less well? His BP and any diabetes (if he has it) should be well controlled. Best wishes
