Overview Lenome 25 Capsule

Lenome 25 Capsules modulate immune system function, treating multiple myeloma and myelodysplastic syndromes. Administer this medication with or without food, consistently at the same time daily for optimal results. Dosage and frequency are determined by your physician, varying based on your condition and potentially adjusted over time. Strictly adhere to your doctor's prescribed regimen; improper usage or overdose can lead to severe adverse effects. Therapeutic benefits may take weeks or months to manifest; discontinue only under medical supervision. Common side effects include headache, fatigue, nausea, skin rash, and dizziness. This medication can lower blood cell counts (red and white blood cells), increasing infection and bleeding risks. Avoid activities promoting bleeding and contact with contagious individuals. Regular blood tests to monitor blood cell levels are mandatory. Inform your healthcare provider of all other medications you're taking, as interactions may occur. This medication is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding; effective contraception for both partners is crucial during treatment. Maintain adequate hydration by drinking plenty of fluids.
