About RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION

  • RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION contains the active ingredient rituximab and is prescribed for various conditions in adults. It is used, either alone or in combination with other medications, to treat Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (a cancer affecting B-lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell) and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (the most common form of cancer affecting B-cells). It is also used in conjunction with methotrexate to treat moderate-to-severe Rheumatoid Arthritis, an autoimmune disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own joints. Furthermore, it's indicated for treating Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis or Microscopic Polyangiitis, conditions characterized by blood vessel inflammation primarily affecting 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 that causes painful blisters on the skin and mucous membranes of the mouth, throat, nose, and genitals.
  • RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION belongs to the class of medications known as anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies. It should not be administered to individuals with known allergies to rituximab or any of its components, those with weakened immune systems, or those with active, severe infections. Prior to starting treatment, it's essential to inform your healthcare provider if you have a history of heart disease, heart failure, or breathing difficulties. It's also crucial to inform your doctor if you've ever had a Hepatitis B infection, as rituximab can sometimes reactivate the virus, potentially leading to severe complications. This injection is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
  • Common side effects associated with RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION may include blood infections, reduced red blood cell counts, dizziness, facial and body swelling, itchy skin, diarrhea, increased sweating, and fluctuations in blood pressure (either low or high). If you are of childbearing potential, it’s important to use effective contraception during treatment and for 12 months after the last dose. This medicine can trigger severe infusion reactions during or within 24 hours of administration. Immediately notify your doctor or another healthcare professional if you experience any signs or symptoms of an infusion reaction, such as elevated blood pressure, chest discomfort, headache, difficulty breathing, vomiting, skin rashes, or throat swelling. Careful monitoring is crucial during and after the infusion to manage any potential adverse events promptly. The dosage and administration schedule will be determined by your physician based on your specific condition and overall health.

Uses of RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION

  • Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL): A type of cancer that begins in the lymphatic system, which is part of the body's immune system. RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION may be used in the treatment of certain subtypes of NHL.

  • Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis or Microscopic Polyangiitis: These are rare autoimmune diseases that cause inflammation of blood vessels. RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION is sometimes used to treat these conditions by suppressing the immune system.

Pregnancy

UNSAFE

RITULASTA 100MG/10ML 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 RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTIONArrow

  • RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION should always be administered under the direct supervision of a qualified healthcare professional, such as a trained doctor or nurse. Self-administration is strictly prohibited.
  • Prior to receiving RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION, you will likely be given pre-medications. These medications are designed to minimize potential side effects associated with the infusion.
  • The dosage and duration of your RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION treatment will be determined by your doctor. They will carefully consider the severity of your condition, your individual response to the medication, and any other relevant health factors.
  • RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION is administered intravenously, meaning it is delivered directly into your vein through an infusion. During the infusion process, you will be closely monitored by medical staff for any adverse reactions or unwanted side effects. This ensures your safety and allows for immediate intervention if needed.
  • It's crucial to inform your doctor about any existing medical conditions, allergies, or medications you are currently taking before starting RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION treatment. This information helps them tailor the treatment plan to your specific needs and minimize the risk of complications.

How to store RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION?Arrow

  • Keep RITULASTA 100MG INJ 10ML away from the reach of children and pets.
  • Store RITULASTA 100MG INJ 10ML in a refrigerator (2 - 8°C). Do not freeze.

Benefits of RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTIONArrow

  • RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION is a specialized medication containing a monoclonal antibody that specifically targets the CD20 antigen found on the surface of B-lymphocytes, which are a type of white blood cell. In Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL), RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION works by attaching to these B-cells and triggering cell death, effectively reducing the number of cancerous cells. This targeted approach helps to manage and control these conditions.
  • The binding action of RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION is crucial as it not only induces cell death but also actively blocks B-cell activation and growth. By preventing these cells from becoming activated and multiplying, the medication exerts its anticancer effects, slowing down the progression of the disease and providing therapeutic benefits. This dual mechanism of action makes it a valuable tool in cancer treatment.
  • In the context of rheumatoid arthritis, RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION offers therapeutic benefits by inhibiting several key processes involved in the disease's pathology. It reduces the production of rheumatoid factor, a marker of autoimmune activity. Furthermore, it interferes with antigen presentation, T-cell activation, and the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. By modulating these immune responses, RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION helps alleviate inflammation and joint damage associated with rheumatoid arthritis.

How to use RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTIONArrow

  • RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION should only be administered by a trained doctor or nurse in a clinical setting. It is crucial to avoid self-administration of this injection.
  • Prior to receiving RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION, you will be given other medications, known as pre-medication, to help minimize potential side effects. These pre-medications are an important part of the treatment protocol and are given to ensure your comfort and safety during the infusion.
  • The dose and duration of your treatment with RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION will be determined by your doctor, taking into account the severity of your condition, your overall health, and other individual factors. It's essential to follow your doctor's specific instructions regarding the treatment schedule.
  • RITULASTA 100MG/10ML INJECTION will be administered as an intravenous infusion, meaning it will be delivered directly into your vein over a period of time. During the infusion, you will be carefully monitored by healthcare professionals for any unexpected or adverse reactions. This close monitoring allows for immediate intervention if any issues arise, ensuring your well-being throughout the procedure.
