Overview Atranza Capsule

Atranza capsules are retinoid medications, chemically related to vitamin A, prescribed for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a blood disorder. Their mechanism involves inhibiting the proliferation of aberrant blood cells. Consistent daily ingestion, ideally with meals at the same time, is crucial to maintain therapeutic levels. Symptom improvement may take weeks; continued use is essential for optimal results. Consult your physician if no progress is observed after several weeks. Increased dosage frequency won't accelerate effects but may heighten adverse reactions. Common, usually mild, side effects include headache, fever, dry skin, and rash. These typically subside with continued use, but persistent or bothersome symptoms warrant medical attention; dosage adjustments might be necessary. Serious adverse effects are infrequent. Increased sun sensitivity is possible; minimize sun exposure. Hydration and moisturization are recommended due to potential dryness of mucous membranes. Skin fragility may increase. Waxing or laser treatments should be avoided. Due to teratogenic potential, pregnant or planning-to-conceive individuals must consult their doctor before use.
