About LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION

  • LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION contains rituximab as its active ingredient. It is prescribed for various conditions in adults, either alone or in conjunction with other medications. These conditions include non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a cancer affecting B-lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, another common cancer affecting B-cells. This injection is also indicated for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the joints, in combination with methotrexate.
  • Further applications of LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION include the treatment of granulomatosis with polyangiitis and microscopic polyangiitis, both inflammatory conditions affecting blood vessels, particularly in the lungs and kidneys, in both adults and children aged 2 years and older. Additionally, it is used to manage moderate to severe pemphigus vulgaris, an autoimmune disorder causing painful blisters on the skin and mucous membranes of the mouth, throat, nose, and genitals. This medication works by targeting the CD20 protein found on B cells, leading to their depletion and reducing the severity of autoimmune and cancerous processes.
  • LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION belongs to the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody class of drugs. It is crucial to avoid this injection if you have a known allergy to rituximab or any of its other components, if you have a compromised immune system, or if you are currently experiencing a severe active infection. Before starting treatment, inform your doctor about any pre-existing heart conditions, including heart disease or heart failure, or any breathing difficulties. It's also important to discuss any history of hepatitis B infection, as rituximab can sometimes reactivate the virus, leading to severe complications. Pregnancy and breastfeeding are generally discouraged while using this injection.
  • Common side effects associated with LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION may include blood infections, reduced red blood cell count (anemia), dizziness, swelling in the face and body (edema), itchy skin (pruritus), diarrhea, increased sweating (hyperhidrosis), and fluctuations in blood pressure (either low or high). If you are of childbearing potential, it is essential to use effective contraception during treatment and for 12 months following the last dose. This medication can also trigger severe infusion reactions during or within 24 hours after administration. Alert your physician or healthcare provider immediately if you experience any infusion-related symptoms, such as elevated blood pressure, chest pain, headache, breathing problems, vomiting, skin rashes, or throat swelling. Regular monitoring and prompt management of these potential side effects are critical during LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION therapy.

Uses of LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION

  • Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) is a type of cancer that begins in the lymphatic system. It's important to get diagnosed early.
  • Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is a type of cancer of the blood and bone marrow. This progresses more slowly than other leukemia's.
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting many joints, including those in the hands and feet, and needs special care and attention.
  • Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis or Microscopic Polyangiitis both are rare autoimmune diseases that cause inflammation of blood vessels.
  • Pemphigus Vulgaris is a rare autoimmune disorder that causes painful blisters on the skin and mucous membranes.

default alt

Pregnancy

UNSAFE

LUPIXIMAB 100 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 LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTIONArrow

  • LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION must be administered exclusively by a qualified healthcare professional, such as a trained doctor or nurse. Self-administration is strictly prohibited. Prior to receiving LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION, you will be given premedications to mitigate potential side effects. These premedications are crucial for minimizing the risk of adverse reactions and ensuring your comfort during the infusion process.
  • The dosage and duration of your treatment will be determined by your doctor, taking into account the severity of your condition and other relevant factors. The doctor will consider your overall health and medical history before arriving at a dosage decision.
  • LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION is administered as an intravenous infusion, allowing the medication to be delivered directly into your bloodstream. During the infusion, you will be closely monitored for any signs of unwanted side effects. This careful monitoring enables the healthcare team to promptly address any issues that may arise and ensure your safety throughout the treatment process.

How to store LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION?Arrow

  • Keep LUPIXIMAB 100MG INJ away from the reach of children and pets.
  • Store LUPIXIMAB 100MG INJ in a refrigerator (2 - 8°C). Do not freeze.

Benefits of LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTIONArrow

  • LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION is a monoclonal antibody, a type of protein designed to recognize and bind to a specific target in the body. In this case, it targets the CD20 antigen found on the surface of B-lymphocytes, which are a type of white blood cell. These B-cells play a crucial role in the development and progression of certain cancers and autoimmune diseases.
  • By binding to the CD20 antigen, LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION triggers a series of events that lead to the death of these B-cells. This mechanism is particularly useful in treating Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL), where cancerous B-cells proliferate uncontrollably. The destruction of these cells helps to reduce the tumor burden and control the disease.
  • Furthermore, LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION's binding action inhibits the activation and growth of B-cells, leading to anticancer effects. In rheumatoid arthritis, it interferes with the processes that drive inflammation and joint damage. Specifically, it inhibits rheumatoid factor production, antigen presentation, T-cell activation, and the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. This multifaceted approach helps to alleviate symptoms and slow down the progression of rheumatoid arthritis.

How to use LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTIONArrow

  • LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION must be administered strictly by a trained healthcare professional, such as a doctor or nurse. It is crucial that you do not attempt to self-administer this medication. The injection will be given to you as an intravenous infusion, allowing the medication to enter your bloodstream directly. Prior to receiving LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION, you will be given pre-medications to minimize the potential for side effects. These pre-medications are an important part of the treatment process, designed to make the infusion as comfortable and safe as possible.
  • Your doctor will carefully determine the appropriate dosage and duration of your treatment with LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION. This decision will be based on several factors, including the severity of your condition, your overall health, and your response to the medication. Throughout the infusion process, you will be closely monitored by medical staff to detect any adverse reactions or unwanted side effects. This careful monitoring ensures that any potential problems are identified and addressed promptly, contributing to your safety and well-being.
  • It's important to communicate openly with your healthcare provider about any concerns or questions you may have regarding the LUPIXIMAB 100 INJECTION treatment. They are there to provide you with the information and support you need throughout the process. Remember, your active participation and open communication are key to a successful treatment experience.
