About VIRAFIN 80 INJECTION

  • VIRAFIN 80 INJECTION contains interferon alfa-2b. It is used to treat several serious conditions, including certain types of cancers and long-term viral infections like chronic hepatitis B and hepatitis C. This medicine works much like a protein naturally made by your body called interferon. It helps to strengthen your body's immune response to better fight off infections and diseases. By doing so, it can suppress the virus from multiplying and also reduce inflammation in the liver often caused by these infections.
  • Before receiving VIRAFIN 80 INJECTION, it is crucial to inform your doctor about your complete medical history. This is especially important if you have severe heart conditions, kidney or liver problems, a history of seizures, autoimmune diseases (where the body attacks itself), thyroid issues, or if you have had an organ transplant. This medication is typically given as an injection, either under the skin or into a muscle, as directed by your doctor. You might experience side effects. Common ones can resemble flu symptoms, such as fever, chills, headache, tiredness, and muscle aches. Dental and gum problems are also possible. Staying well-hydrated by drinking extra fluids is recommended to help manage potential low blood pressure. Patients with autoimmune disorders or other serious health conditions will require close monitoring throughout the treatment period, which can last for several weeks or months depending on the condition being treated. Regular blood tests and check-ups are necessary to monitor your response to the medication and manage any side effects.

Uses of VIRAFIN 80 INJECTION

  • A type of slow-growing blood cancer known as Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML).
