About OXOSAR-50 INJECTION

  • OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is a platinum-based antineoplastic agent containing the active ingredient Oxaliplatin. It is primarily used in the treatment of stage 3 colon cancer following the surgical removal of the primary tumor (resectioning). It is also indicated for metastatic colon and rectum cancer, where the cancer has spread to other parts of the body. This medication is often used in combination with other anti-cancer drugs to enhance its effectiveness. Colorectal cancer, which affects the rectum and large intestine, arises from the accumulation of various genetic mutations influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. Notably, OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is effective against tumors that have shown resistance to cisplatin therapy, offering a valuable treatment option in such cases.
  • Common side effects associated with OXOSAR-50 INJECTION may include a reduction in blood cell counts (potentially leading to anemia or increased risk of infection), unpleasant sensations in the throat, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, indigestion, heartburn, the formation of blood clots, the presence of blood in the urine, high blood pressure, depression, insomnia, and low calcium levels. It is important to inform your healthcare provider if any of these side effects become bothersome or persist, as they may require medical attention or management strategies.
  • Before initiating treatment with OXOSAR-50 INJECTION, it is crucial to inform your doctor about any allergies you may have, particularly to Oxaliplatin or any of the other ingredients in the medication. Additionally, disclose any pre-existing medical conditions, such as moderate or mild kidney problems, liver problems, or heart disorders. Provide a comprehensive list of all medications you are currently taking, including any vaccinations you have received recently or plan to receive. OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is generally not recommended for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to potential risks to the fetus or infant. Discuss alternative treatment options with your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Safety Advice for OXOSAR-50 INJECTIONArrow

default alt

Pregnancy

UNSAFE

OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is unsafe to use during pregnancy; hence it is not recommended. Women should use effective contraception during and after the 4 months of treatment.

Dosage of OXOSAR-50 INJECTIONArrow

  • OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is administered via a slow intravenous injection, meaning it's carefully delivered directly into a vein. This process, known as an intravenous infusion, typically takes between 2 to 6 hours to complete. The precise duration and rate of the infusion are determined by your healthcare provider.
  • The dosage of OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is meticulously calculated based on your body surface area (BSA). BSA is a measurement that considers both your height and weight, providing a more accurate representation of your body size than weight alone. Your physician will use a specific formula to determine your BSA and then calculate the appropriate dose of the medication accordingly.
  • It is crucial to adhere strictly to the dosage and administration schedule prescribed by your physician. Do not attempt to self-administer this medication or alter the dosage in any way. Any changes to the treatment plan should only be made under the direct supervision and guidance of your healthcare provider. Following their instructions carefully will help ensure the medication's effectiveness and minimize the risk of potential side effects.

How to store OXOSAR-50 INJECTION?Arrow

  • Keep OXOSAR 50MG INJ 25ML away from the reach of children and pets.
  • Store OXOSAR 50MG INJ 25ML at room temperature.

Benefits of OXOSAR-50 INJECTIONArrow

  • OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is a medication designed to combat cancer by directly targeting the genetic material of cancer cells. It specifically damages the DNA and RNA, which are crucial for cancer cell growth and replication. By disrupting these essential components, OXOSAR-50 INJECTION effectively interferes with the cancer cells' ability to multiply and spread throughout the body.
  • The injection works at a cellular level, preventing cancer cells from dividing and growing uncontrollably. This mechanism of action helps to slow down the progression of the disease and can lead to a reduction in tumor size over time. The targeted approach minimizes damage to healthy cells, potentially reducing side effects compared to traditional chemotherapy.
  • Furthermore, OXOSAR-50 INJECTION plays a vital role in managing various types of cancers. Its ability to halt the reproduction of cancerous cells makes it an important element in cancer treatment plans, improving patient outcomes and overall survival rates. Consulting with a healthcare professional is crucial for determining if OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is the right course of treatment.

How to use OXOSAR-50 INJECTIONArrow

  • OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is administered via a slow intravenous infusion, meaning it's carefully injected into a vein over a period of 2 to 6 hours. This slow delivery helps to minimize potential side effects and ensures the medication is properly absorbed by your body.
  • The dosage of OXOSAR-50 INJECTION is carefully determined by your physician, taking into account your individual body surface area. Body surface area is a calculation that uses your height and weight to estimate the total surface area of your body. This is a more precise way to determine the correct medication dosage compared to weight alone.
  • During the infusion, you will be closely monitored by healthcare professionals to ensure your comfort and safety. They will observe you for any signs of adverse reactions and adjust the infusion rate if necessary. It is important to inform your doctor or nurse immediately if you experience any unusual symptoms, such as pain, swelling, or redness at the injection site, or any other discomfort.
  • The entire process will be conducted under strict medical supervision in a hospital or clinic setting to ensure optimal safety and efficacy.
  • Do not self administer this medication. It has to be administered by a medical professional only!
