anti cancer medicine

Lomustine capsules are a chemotherapy medication used to treat brain tumors, Hodgkin's disease, lung cancer, and malignant melanoma by damaging cancer cell DNA. Taken orally (often 40mg capsules) on an empty stomach, it is a potent, toxic drug requiring close medical supervision, with common side effects including nausea, hair loss, and delayed bone marrow suppression.

Biomab EGFR 50mg Injection (Nimotuzumab) is a monoclonal antibody used to treat EGFR-expressing cancers, such as head and neck, brain (glioma), and sometimes lung or pancreatic cancers. It works by binding to cancer cells, marking them for immune system destruction and inhibiting growth. It is administered via IV infusion, typically alongside chemotherapy or radiation.

vivitra inj uses मराठी +8 View allVivitra Injection (Trastuzumab) is an anti-cancer medication primarily used to treat HER2-positive breast cancer and HER2-positive metastatic gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer. It works by targeting and inhibiting the HER2 protein, which causes cancer cells to grow and divide uncontrollably.Key Uses:HER2-Positive Breast Cancer: Treats early and advanced (metastatic) breast cancer, often in combination with chemotherapy or hormone therapy.HER2-Positive Gastric/Stomach Cancer: Treats advanced or metastatic stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer.

Melphalan 2 mg tablets, often marketed as Melfalax or Myelostem by Halsted Pharma, are a potent chemotherapy medication used to treat multiple myeloma, advanced ovarian cancer, advanced breast cancer, and polycythaemia vera. As an alkylating agent, it damages cancer cell DNA, restricting growth

Imatinib tablet is a targeted cancer medication (tyrosine kinase inhibitor) used to treat specific blood cancers and tumors by blocking proteins that fuel cancer cell growth. It is primarily used for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML), Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL), and Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST).

Pirfenex tablet is a prescription medication primarily used to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a chronic, progressive lung disease. It acts as an antifibrotic agent that reduces swelling and scarring in the lungs, making breathing easier and slowing disease progression

Luprodex injection (containing Leuprolide/Leuprorelin) is used to treat hormone-dependent conditions by reducing testosterone in men and estrogen in women. Key uses include prostate cancer (palliative treatment), endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and central precocious puberty (early puberty) in children.

Bicalutamide is a nonsteroidal antiandrogen medication used primarily to treat Stage D2 metastatic prostate cancer in men, typically in combination with LHRH analog drugs. It blocks testosterone's action to stop the growth/spread of cancer cells. It is sometimes used off-label for PCOS and severe excessive hair growth (hirsutism) in women

Regorafenib is an oral multi-kinase inhibitor tablet, commonly known by the brand name Stivarga, approved for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), and hepatocellular carcinoma. The medication operates by inhibiting specific kinases, which helps slow tumor growth and restricts the blood supply to cancer cells.

Vivitra (Trastuzumab) injection is a targeted cancer therapy used to treat HER2-positive breast cancer and HER2-positive metastatic gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer. It works by inhibiting the growth of cancer cells that overexpress the HER2 protein. It is administered via intravenous infusion under oncologist supervision.

Tretinoin capsules (Vesanoid) are oral retinoids specifically used to treat Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (APL), a type of blood cancer, by encouraging immature white blood cells to mature. They are taken orally, usually twice daily with food, to induce remission when other chemotherapy treatments have failed or are not suitable.

Bortezomib injection is used to treat multiple myeloma (blood plasma cell cancer) in patients with or without a previous history of treatment, and mantle cell lymphoma. Bortezomib is an antineoplastic agent (cancer medicine). It interferes with the growth of cancer cells, which are eventually destroyed by the body.
