About GLIVEC 400MG TABLET 10'S

  • GLIVEC 400MG TABLET 10'S contains imatinib, an active ingredient that serves as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor antineoplastic drug. This medication is designed for adults and children with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a form of cancer where abnormal white blood cells grow uncontrollably. It is also prescribed for Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-positive ALL) and certain gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), which develop in the digestive tract and can spread. Additionally, GLIVEC 400MG TABLET 10'S addresses myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative diseases (MDS/MPD), where certain blood cells grow out of control. It treats hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) and chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL), linked to excess eosinophils. For dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP), a soft tissue cancer, this medicine helps inhibit abnormal cell growth.
  • Before starting GLIVEC 400MG TABLET 10'S, inform your doctor if you have kidney, heart, liver, or thyroid issues, or had your thyroid gland removed.
