Overview Daxymia 400mg Tablet

Oncaspar 400mg tablets are indicated for various cancers. Primarily, they treat hematological malignancies like chronic myeloid leukemia and acute lymphocytic leukemia, alongside gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Their mechanism involves targeting proteins crucial for cancer cell proliferation and metastasis. This medication also addresses dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (a skin tumor) and aggressive systemic mastocytosis (a bone marrow disorder). Administer with food, consistently at the same time daily for optimal efficacy. Continue treatment as directed by your physician; duration varies based on individual response. Incorrect usage or overdose can lead to severe adverse effects. Therapeutic benefits may take weeks or months to manifest; do not discontinue without consulting your doctor. Common side effects encompass edema, nausea, vomiting, muscle spasms, musculoskeletal discomfort, diarrhea, skin rash, tiredness, and abdominal pain. Report sudden, significant weight gain. Your doctor may order regular blood and liver function tests. Avoid activities requiring alertness if dizziness or blurred vision occur. Inform your healthcare provider of all concurrent medications, as drug interactions are possible. This medication is contraindicated during pregnancy and lactation; effective contraception is essential for both partners throughout the treatment period.
