  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. It is characterized by an enlarged and hard thyroid gland and hoarseness in the voice due to paralysis of the nerve in the voice box. Hepatocellular carcin...

  What is it? Thrombocytopenia is a condition in which an individual has a low blood platelet count. Platelets (thrombocytes) are colourless blood cells that help blood clot. Platelets stop bleeding by clumping and forming plugs in blood vessel injuries. This condition might occur as a result of a bone marrow disorder such as leukaemia or an immune system problem. It can also be a side effect of taking certain medications. Both children and adults may be affected with thrombocytopenia.  Revolade 25 is a medicine that is used for the treatment of: primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a disease in which the patient's immune system destroys platelets (components in the blood that help it to clot). Patients with ITP have low platelet counts in the blood (thrombocytopenia) and are at risk of bleeding. When to use this? When this condition occurs in adults who have a low platelet count and have chronic immune (idiopathic) thrombocytopenia (ITP), then they can use Revolade 25mg tab...

  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...

Hypotension and its ordeals Hypotension is the medical term for low blood pressure (less than 90/60). Optimal blood pressure is less than 120/80 (systolic/diastolic). In healthy people, low blood pressure without any symptoms is not usually a concern and does not need to be treated. But low blood pressure can be a sign of an underlying problem -- especially in the elderly -- where it may cause inadequate blood flow to the heart, brain, and other vital organs. Health problems can occur when blood pressure drops suddenly and the brain is deprived of an adequate blood supply. This can lead to dizziness or lightheadedness.  Gutron 2.5 mg Tablet is used in the treatment of severe forms of hypotension (low blood pressure) in patients when other treatments have not worked. Symptoms of low blood pressure caused by conditions or diseases depend upon the specific cause of the low blood pressure. For example, if insufficient blood flows to the brain, brain cells do not receive enough oxygen a...

  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. ...

  Letroz 2.5 mg Tablet   is used as the first-line therapy for women suffering from breast cancer (early or advanced stage), whose tumors are hormone receptor-positive. It has an active ingredient of letrozole which inhibits estrogen production by blocking the enzyme aromatase in all tissues to the extent where there is total estrogen deprivation. It can be used as an adjunct as a standard treatment for postmenopausal women with early stages of breast cancer. Else, it can be used for the treatment of hormone receptor-positive or unknown advanced variation or type of breast cancer in postmenopausal women. This medication works only on postmenopausal women. This medication, like any other medicine, has a set of side effects. It has the capability to disrupt bone mineral density and can increase cholesterol levels. Its common side effects include hot flashes, headache, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, high blood pressure, depression, vaginal dryness, loss of appetite, stomach pain...

It is the preferred choice to treat advanced lung cancer that has started spreading to other parts of the body in patients who have failed to respond to other anti-cancer medications. Uses of Tagrisso 80mg Tablet: Treatment of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). To treat Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, that has spread to other parts of the body that cannot be removed by surgery. Alternative treatment for patients who have stopped responding to earlier treatments with other tyrosine kinase inhibitors. How Tagrisso 80mg Tablet works:  Tagrisso 80mg Tablet targets the mutant of tumors that have the gene L858R and exon 19 EFGR.
