Overview Piclib 100mg Capsule

Estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer is treated with Piclib 100mg capsules, administered alongside hormonal anti-cancer agents. For optimal absorption, ingest the 100mg capsule with food at the same time daily, as prescribed by your physician. Dosage and frequency are individualized and may adjust over time based on your response. Strict adherence to your doctor's instructions is crucial; improper usage or overdose can lead to severe adverse events. Therapeutic effects might not be apparent for weeks or months; discontinue only under medical supervision. Common side effects include nausea, alopecia, dermatological reactions, emesis, and bowel disturbances. Piclib can suppress blood cell production, potentially increasing infection risk. Report any signs of infection (fever, malaise, bleeding), dizziness, or bruising to your doctor. Prior to initiating therapy, disclose any pre-existing cardiac, hepatic, or renal conditions, along with all current medications, including antibiotics or antivirals, as drug interactions are possible. Piclib is contraindicated during pregnancy and lactation; reliable contraception is mandatory for both partners throughout treatment.
