Overview Zyrubin Lyophilized 10mg Injection

Lyophilized Zyrubin 10mg injection treats various hematologic, breast, gastric, pulmonary, ovarian, and soft tissue cancers. It also aids in preventing bladder cancer recurrence post-surgery. Administered intravenously by a qualified healthcare professional via infusion, it's used alone or in combination chemotherapy regimens. Dosage and frequency are determined by your physician, based on your condition and may vary. Strict adherence to your doctor's instructions is crucial; incorrect usage or overdose can lead to severe adverse events. Therapeutic effects may take weeks or months to manifest; discontinue only under medical supervision. Reliable contraception is advised for both sexes as this medication reduces contraceptive pill efficacy. Common side effects include nausea, thrombocytopenia, alopecia, amenorrhea, pyrexia, and skin rash. Reduced blood cell counts increase infection risk, potentially life-threatening. Regular blood tests monitoring blood cell counts, renal, hepatic, and cardiac function are essential. Disclose any liver or heart conditions, and all other medications, to your doctor before commencing treatment; drug interactions can compromise efficacy or alter its effects. Notify your physician of pregnancy or breastfeeding.
