Overview Leucoginase 5000IU Injection

Asparaginase 5000IU Injection is indicated in the management of specific leukemias, a form of blood cancer. Its use may extend to other cancers under your physician's direction. Administration may be solo or as part of a multi-drug chemotherapy regimen. The injection is administered by a healthcare professional, ideally at the same time daily for optimal efficacy. Dosage and frequency are determined by your doctor based on your condition and may vary. Strict adherence to your doctor's prescribed regimen is crucial, as improper use can lead to severe adverse effects. While therapeutic benefits might not be immediately apparent, discontinuation should only occur under your doctor's guidance. Common adverse reactions include shortness of breath, skin rash, nausea, vomiting, and angioedema. Hyperglycemia is possible, necessitating routine blood glucose monitoring alongside treatment response and side effect assessment. Increased fluid intake is recommended to promote urination, mitigating potential kidney and bladder complications. This medication can compromise your immune system, increasing infection risk, which can be life-threatening. Reliable contraception is essential during therapy. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your doctor about pregnancy, pregnancy plans, or breastfeeding.
