Rockwell Medical Technologies, Inc. is a leading, innovative manufacturer and developer of renal drug therapies and critical products focused on improving the quality of care for dialysis patients. Dialysis is a process that duplicates kidney function for those patients whose kidneys have failed to work and who suffer from chronic kidney failure, a condition also known as end-stage-renal-disease (ESRD). There are an estimated 360,000 ESRD patients in the United States growing approximately 3-5% on average each year. There are approximately 2 million ESRD patients world-wide. Rockwell's products are used to maintain life, removing toxins and replacing nutrients in the dialysis patient's bloodstream.
