  Mucor mycosis, or black fungus, among those infected with or recovered from Covid-19 in hospitals across India, has added to the medical community's woes. Mucor mycosis is a serious but rare fungal infection caused by a group of moulds called 'Mucoromycetes'. Mucoromycetes live throughout the environment and is ubiquitous in nature. It can affect areas from where it can be inhaled—through the nose/ sinus/ lungs. If it enters from a wound or skin, then it can cause local infection, but if it enters from the sinus, it can affect the eyes and the brain. Poor control of diabetes is the biggest cause for the rising numbers, especially post-Covid. WHAT IS BLACK FUNGUS?                  Black fungus, also known as Mucor mycosis, is a rare but dangerous infection.  Black fungus  is caused by getting into contact with fungus spores in the environment. It can also form in the skin after the fungus enters through a cut, scrape, burn, or...

  What is it for? Thyroid cancer is a cancer of the thyroid, the butterfly-shaped gland at the base of the neck. The cause of thyroid cancer is poorly understood but may involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Some people have no symptoms. Others may notice a lump in the neck. Treatments, which are usually successful, include surgery, hormone therapy, radioactive iodine, radiation and in some cases chemotherapy. When radioactive iodine therapy is no longer beneficial in treatment, it can be said that cancer has become advanced or progressive.  Lenvatinib 4mg  or Lenvima 4mg Capsule is composed of the active ingredient Lenvatinib which are indicated for such progressive or advanced thyroid cancer. Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma (Advanced thyroid cancer) usually occurs in patients above 60 years of age.

  Why is it needed? Some tumors carry tyrosine kinase mutations, such as in cases of stomach and blood cancers.  Veenat 400 mg Tablet is used to treat them. It is a protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits the multiplication of tumor cells and causes cell death. This makes it a first-line therapeutic drug in patients with chronic phase blood cancer even if it is considered to be not curative. There is a type of blood cancer characterized by the uncontrolled production of stem cells in the bone marrow and an increased number of mature granulocytes in the blood. It is called Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML). Being an uncommon type of cancer of the bone marrow, CML causes an increased number of white blood cells in the blood. The term "chronic" in chronic myelogenous leukemia indicates that this cancer tends to progress more slowly than acute forms of leukemia. How does it help? The treatment with Veenat 400mg tablet aims to increase survival, check the worsening of the...

  Tagrisso 80mg   is a medicine used for treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Non-small cell lung cancer is a disorder caused due to mutation of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor EGFR T790M. It is the preferred choice of drug for an advanced level of cancer that has spread or is spreading to other parts of the body. Tagrisso uses a small molecule inhibitor of tyrosine kinase. So, it can also be used as an alternative treatment for patients who have stopped responding to earlier treatments with other tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The drug targets the mutant tumors that have the gene of L858R and exon 19 EGFR. It fights against the action of abnormal growth of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor EGFR T790M. Along with that it also prevents the lung cancer from relapsing after the removal of the tumor after the surgery.   Tagrisso is a very expensive drug. MrMed provides a Patient Assistance Program for the same, which is sponsored by the manufacturers. ...
