Overview Kixta 100mg Capsule

Estramustine 100mg capsules are indicated for managing certain metastatic breast cancers (estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative). This medication is administered concurrently with hormonal anti-cancer treatments. For optimal absorption, ingest Estramustine 100mg capsules with food, aiming for consistent daily timing. Dosage and frequency are determined by your physician, based on your individual needs and may be adjusted.

Therapeutic effects may take weeks or months to manifest; discontinue use only under your doctor's guidance. Common side effects encompass tiredness, alopecia, skin rashes, nausea, and bowel irregularities. This medication can lower blood cell counts (red and white), potentially increasing infection risk. Report any infection signs (fever, chills, weakness, bleeding, bruising, epistaxis) to your doctor immediately. Dizziness may occur; avoid driving or tasks requiring alertness if affected. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your doctor about any pre-existing heart, liver, or kidney conditions, or concurrent use of anti-infectives. Drug interactions are possible; disclose all medications to your healthcare provider.
