Cytoblastin 10mg Injection is an anti-cancer medication used in the treatment of breast cancer, kidney cancer, Hodgkin’s disease, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Cytoblastin 10mg Injection is given as an injection into the vein under the supervision of a doctor. Your doctor will decide what dose is necessary and how often you must take it. This will depend on what you are being treated for and may change from time to time. You should take it exactly as your doctor has advised. Taking it in the wrong way or taking too much can cause very serious side effects. It may take several weeks or months to see or feel the benefits, but do not stop taking it unless your doctor tells you to.
The most common side effects of this medicine include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and decreased appetite. This medicine may reduce the number of blood cells (white blood cells) in your blood, thereby increasing the susceptibility to infections and fever. In some cases, it may also cause kidney disease related to uric acid levels. Regular blood tests are required to check your blood cells, as well as heart, liver, and blood uric acid levels.
Many other medicines can affect, or be affected by, this medicine, so let your doctor know all medications you are using. This medicine is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. The use of effective contraception by both males and females during treatment is important to avoid pregnancy.
