About IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION

  • IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION contains the active ingredient rituximab and is prescribed for various conditions in adults. It is used, either alone or in combination with other medications, for the treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a cancer affecting white blood cells known as B-lymphocytes, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common cancer that affects B-cells. Additionally, it's indicated for treating moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the body's own joints, in conjunction with methotrexate in adults. Other applications include managing granulomatosis with polyangiitis or microscopic polyangiitis, conditions characterized by inflammation of blood vessels primarily affecting the lungs and kidneys, in both adults and children aged 2 years and older. Furthermore, it is employed in the treatment of moderate to severe pemphigus vulgaris, an autoimmune disorder causing painful blisters on the skin and mucous membranes of the mouth, throat, nose, and genitals.
  • IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION belongs to a class of medications called anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies. It's crucial to avoid this injection if you have a known allergy to rituximab or any of its components, have a weakened immune system, or are currently experiencing a severe active infection. Before commencing treatment, inform your doctor about any pre-existing heart conditions, heart failure, or breathing difficulties. Disclose any history of hepatitis B infection to your doctor, as this infection can reactivate in some instances and potentially become severe. Pregnancy and breastfeeding are generally not recommended while using this injection.
  • Common side effects associated with IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION include blood infections, reduced red blood cell count, dizziness, facial and bodily swelling, itchy skin, diarrhea, increased sweating, and fluctuations in blood pressure (either low or high). If you are capable of becoming pregnant, it is essential to use effective contraceptive measures during treatment and for 12 months after the final dose. This medication may trigger severe infusion reactions during or within 24 hours of administration. Immediately notify your physician or healthcare professional if you experience any infusion-related reactions, such as elevated blood pressure, chest pain, headache, difficulty breathing, vomiting, skin rashes, or throat swelling. Regular monitoring and prompt reporting of any adverse effects are vital for ensuring patient safety and well-being throughout the treatment course.
  • It's important to discuss all medications you are taking with your doctor, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements, to avoid any potential drug interactions. Routine blood tests may be required to monitor blood cell counts and liver function during treatment. Maintain open communication with your healthcare provider and attend all scheduled appointments. Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids can help minimize some side effects. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage and frequency of administration based on your specific medical condition and response to treatment.

Uses of IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION

  • Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL): A type of cancer that begins in the lymphatic system, where white blood cells called lymphocytes grow out of control. IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION can be used to treat certain types of NHL.

  • Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis or Microscopic Polyangiitis: These are rare autoimmune diseases that cause inflammation of blood vessels. IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION is sometimes used to treat these conditions by suppressing the immune system.
  • Pemphigus Vulgaris: A rare autoimmune disorder that causes painful blisters on the skin and mucous membranes. IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION can be used as a treatment option to help control the immune response and reduce blister formation.

Pregnancy

UNSAFE

IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION is unsafe to administer in pregnant women because it may affect the fetus. Inform your physician if you are pregnant, suspect pregnancy, or planning to become pregnant. Using an effective birth control method during the treatment and for 12 months after your last dose is necessary.

Dosage of IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTIONArrow

  • IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION must be administered exclusively by a qualified healthcare professional, such as a doctor or nurse, who is trained in its proper use and management of potential side effects. Self-administration is strictly prohibited. Prior to receiving IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION, you will be given pre-medications to minimize the risk and severity of any adverse reactions. These pre-medications are an essential part of the treatment protocol to ensure your safety and comfort.
  • The dosage and duration of your treatment with IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION will be determined by your doctor, taking into careful consideration the severity of your condition, your overall health status, and other relevant factors. It is crucial to adhere to your doctor's prescribed dosage and treatment schedule for the best possible outcome.
  • IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION is administered as an intravenous infusion, meaning it is delivered directly into your vein over a specific period. During the infusion, you will be closely monitored by healthcare professionals for any signs of unwanted side effects.

How to store IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION?Arrow

  • Keep IKGDAR 500MG INJ 50ML away from the reach of children and pets.
  • Store IKGDAR 500MG INJ 50ML in a refrigerator (2 - 8°C). Do not freeze.

Benefits of IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTIONArrow

  • IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION is a specialized medication containing a monoclonal antibody that specifically targets the CD20 antigen found on the surface of B-lymphocytes. These B-lymphocytes are a crucial type of white blood cell. By binding to the CD20 antigen, this medication triggers cell death in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL), effectively combating these conditions.
  • The mechanism of action involves the binding action of IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION to B-cells, which subsequently blocks their activation and growth. This interference with B-cell function leads to significant anticancer effects, contributing to the treatment of NHL and CLL. The targeted approach minimizes damage to healthy cells, focusing on the affected B-lymphocytes.
  • In the context of rheumatoid arthritis, IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION plays a crucial role by inhibiting several key processes. It reduces rheumatoid factor production, interferes with antigen presentation, suppresses T-cell activation, and decreases the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. These actions collectively help to alleviate the symptoms and progression of rheumatoid arthritis, providing relief to patients suffering from this autoimmune disorder.

How to use IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTIONArrow

  • IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION should only be administered by a trained doctor or nurse. It is crucial that you do not attempt to self-administer this medication.
  • Prior to receiving IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION, you will be given pre-medications to help minimize potential side effects. These pre-medications are an important part of the treatment process and are designed to ensure your comfort and safety.
  • The dosage and duration of your treatment with IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION will be determined by your doctor, taking into account the severity of your condition and other relevant individual factors. It's vital to adhere to the prescribed treatment plan for optimal results.
  • IKGDAR 500MG/50ML INJECTION will be administered as an intravenous infusion, allowing the medication to be delivered directly into your bloodstream.
