• CABAXAN 60MG/1.5ML INJECTION is a medication designed to target and disrupt the rapid division of cancer cells. It achieves this by interfering with microtubules, which are crucial components of the cell's cytoskeleton. Think of microtubules as the structural scaffolding that gives a cell its shape and allows it to move and divide properly.
• During mitosis, the process of cell division, microtubules play a vital role in separating chromosomes, ensuring each new cell receives the correct genetic information. CABAXAN 60MG/1.5ML INJECTION inhibits the formation and function of these microtubules. By preventing microtubules from functioning correctly, the drug effectively halts the cell division process in cancer cells.
• Because cancer cells divide much more rapidly than healthy cells, CABAXAN 60MG/1.5ML INJECTION disproportionately affects them. This disruption leads to cell cycle arrest and ultimately triggers programmed cell death (apoptosis) in the cancerous cells, helping to slow down or stop the progression of the disease. This targeted action makes it a valuable tool in cancer treatment.

• CABAXAN 60MG/1.5ML INJECTION will be administered to you by a trained healthcare professional in a hospital or clinical setting. This ensures that you receive the medication safely and that any potential side effects can be promptly managed. It is crucial to adhere to the prescribed dosage and administration schedule for optimal therapeutic benefits.
• The standard recommended dose of CABAXAN 60MG/1.5ML INJECTION is 25mg, given as an intravenous infusion. This means the medication is slowly dripped into your vein over a period of one hour. This infusion is typically repeated every three weeks, but your doctor will determine the exact schedule based on your individual needs. Additionally, you will also be taking oral prednisone at a dose of 10mg daily, as this combination has been shown to be effective in treating your condition.
• Your doctor may need to adjust the dose of CABAXAN 60MG/1.5ML INJECTION based on several factors that are unique to you. These factors can include your age, body weight, any other medical conditions you may have, and how well you are responding to the treatment. It is important to openly communicate with your healthcare team about any changes in your health or any concerns you may have, as this will help them to make the best decisions about your treatment plan.
• Regular monitoring and follow-up appointments with your doctor are essential during your treatment with CABAXAN 60MG/1.5ML INJECTION. These appointments allow your doctor to assess your progress, monitor for any side effects, and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. Please follow your doctor's instructions carefully and attend all scheduled appointments.
