About MELFALAX 50 INJECTION

  • MELFALAX 50 INJECTION contains the active ingredient Melphalan, a powerful anticancer agent belonging to the alkylating agent class of medications. Primarily, it's employed in the treatment of multiple myeloma, a cancer affecting the bone marrow and disrupting the production of healthy blood cells. Additionally, it plays a vital role in managing advanced ovarian cancer, targeting and destroying cancerous cells within the ovaries.
  • Beyond these primary uses, MELFALAX 50 INJECTION is also indicated for treating childhood neuroblastoma, a cancer originating in the nervous system, malignant melanoma, a severe form of skin cancer, and soft tissue sarcoma, which affects muscles, fat, fibrous tissue, blood vessels, and other supporting tissues. Its mechanism involves selectively reducing the number of abnormal cells the body produces, thereby hindering cancer progression.
  • Before using MELFALAX 50 INJECTION, it's crucial to inform your healthcare provider of any allergies to melphalan or other components of the injection. Exercise caution if you've recently undergone radiotherapy or chemotherapy, or if you have any pre-existing kidney problems. This medication is strictly contraindicated during pregnancy or if you are planning to conceive. Disclose any recent vaccinations or planned vaccinations to your doctor.
  • Immediately report any adverse reactions to your physician, such as skin rashes, lumps, hives, facial swelling, eyelid or lip swelling, sudden wheezing, or chest tightness following administration. These symptoms may indicate a severe allergic reaction and require immediate medical attention. Your doctor will monitor your condition and adjust your treatment plan as needed to ensure optimal outcomes and minimize potential side effects.

Uses of MELFALAX 50 INJECTION

  • Multiple myeloma, a cancer that originates in the plasma cells within the bone marrow.
  • Advanced ovarian cancer, a cancer that has spread beyond the ovaries.
  • Childhood neuroblastoma, a type of cancer that develops from immature nerve cells, most often affecting children.
  • Malignant melanoma, a serious form of skin cancer that begins in melanocytes.
  • Soft tissue sarcoma, a cancer that arises from the soft tissues of the body, such as muscle, fat, or connective tissue.

default alt

Pregnancy

UNSAFE

Do not take MELFALAX 50 INJECTION if you are pregnant because this may harm the unborn baby. Inform your physician if you are pregnant, suspecting pregnancy, or planning to get pregnant during the treatment. Use effective contraception during the treatment.

Dosage of MELFALAX 50 INJECTIONArrow

  • MELFALAX 50 INJECTION will be administered to you by a qualified doctor or healthcare professional experienced in cancer chemotherapy within a hospital setting. This ensures proper monitoring and management of any potential side effects.
  • The method of administration can vary depending on your specific condition. It may be given as a slow infusion directly into your vein (intravenous), allowing the medication to circulate throughout your body. Alternatively, in some cases, it might be administered as a perfusion, which involves delivering the drug directly to a specific area of your body through an artery.
  • The precise dosage, the route of administration (intravenous or perfusion), and the overall duration of your treatment will be carefully determined by your doctor. This decision is based on several factors, including the type and stage of your disease, its severity, your individual body weight, any other existing health conditions you may have, and your age. Regular monitoring and adjustments may be necessary throughout your treatment course to optimize its effectiveness and minimize any potential adverse reactions. Do not hesitate to ask your healthcare provider any questions you may have about your treatment plan.

  • Keep MELFALAX 50MG INJ away from the reach of children and pets.
  • Store MELFALAX 50MG INJ at room temperature.

Benefits of MELFALAX 50 INJECTIONArrow

  • MELFALAX 50 INJECTION is a powerful medication classified as an alkylating agent, playing a crucial role in cancer treatment. Its primary mechanism of action involves directly targeting the DNA and RNA within cancer cells. Specifically, it causes cross-linking between the strands of these essential genetic materials. This cross-linking disrupts the normal function of DNA and RNA, hindering their ability to replicate and carry out their cellular duties. Furthermore, MELFALAX 50 INJECTION interferes with protein synthesis, a vital process for cell growth and survival. By disrupting these fundamental cellular processes, MELFALAX 50 INJECTION effectively stops or significantly slows down the proliferation of cancer cells within the body. This makes it a valuable tool in managing various types of cancers. The targeted approach of this medication aims to control the spread of cancerous cells, improving patient outcomes.
  • This injection is administered under strict medical supervision, with careful monitoring of the patient's response and potential side effects. The dosage and treatment schedule are tailored to the individual's specific condition, cancer type, and overall health. It is essential to communicate openly with your healthcare provider about any concerns or side effects experienced during treatment.

How to use MELFALAX 50 INJECTIONArrow

  • MELFALAX 50 INJECTION will be administered to you by a qualified doctor or healthcare professional in a hospital setting, specifically trained in cancer chemotherapy. This ensures that the administration is performed under appropriate medical supervision and with the necessary resources to manage any potential complications.
  • The injection can be administered in two ways: as an infusion directly into your vein, allowing the medication to circulate throughout your body, or as a perfusion, where the medication is delivered to a specific part of your body through an artery. The perfusion method allows for a more targeted approach, delivering a higher concentration of the drug directly to the affected area.
  • Your doctor will carefully determine the most appropriate dose, route of administration, and duration of therapy based on a comprehensive assessment of your individual medical condition. This assessment will consider factors such as the type and severity of your disease, your overall health status, your body weight, any other existing medical conditions, and your age. Regular monitoring and adjustments to the treatment plan may be necessary to optimize its effectiveness and minimize potential side effects. Following your doctor's instructions closely is crucial for achieving the best possible outcome.
