Overview Her-Tinib Tablet

Tivitinib tablets are indicated for breast cancer management. This medication inhibits or reduces the proliferation of cancerous cells. It's administered either independently or alongside other therapies to manage advanced breast cancer. Tivitinib should be ingested on an empty stomach, or at least one hour prior to, or two hours following, a meal. Dosage and treatment length are individualized based on disease severity and treatment response. Adhere strictly to the prescribed regimen to minimize adverse effects. Therapeutic benefits may not be immediately apparent, potentially taking weeks or months; discontinue only under physician guidance. Common side effects include nausea, headache, backache, and respiratory distress. Severe diarrhea may occur; increased fluid intake or medical consultation is advised if this develops. Regular blood pressure monitoring is often necessary. Report severe headache, disorientation, visual disturbances, persistent nausea, or vomiting to your physician. Liver function assessments are typically conducted before, during, and after treatment. Prior to commencing Tivitinib, disclose any pre-existing liver or kidney conditions.
