Overview Borviz 2mg Injection

Bortezomib 2mg injection treats multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma by inhibiting or reducing cancer cell proliferation. Administered intravenously by a healthcare professional, the dosage and frequency are determined by your physician based on your condition and may vary. Strictly adhere to your doctor's instructions; incorrect usage or overdose can lead to severe adverse reactions. Therapeutic effects might not be evident for weeks or months; discontinue only under medical guidance. Common side effects include fatigue, nausea, vomiting, and anorexia. Increased fluid intake is often recommended. Due to potential drowsiness and dizziness, avoid driving or operating machinery. This medication can lower blood cell counts (red and white), increasing infection risk. Regular blood tests monitoring blood cell levels, along with heart, liver function, and uric acid, are essential. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your doctor of any pre-existing liver, kidney, heart conditions, or bleeding disorders. Seek immediate medical attention if cognitive impairment (e.g., memory loss, difficulty concentrating) occurs. Inform your healthcare provider of all other medications you are taking, as interactions are possible. This medication is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding; effective contraception is crucial for both partners throughout treatment.
