BEVATAS 100MG

उत्पाद वर्णन

• Mechanism of Action:The medication works by blocking a specific protein called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which normally stimulates the growth of new blood vessels. By inhibiting the formation of a blood supply to the tumor, Bevatas essentially "starves" the cancer cells of oxygen and nutrients, thus slowing the tumor's growth and spread.
• Administration:It is administered by a healthcare professional as an intravenous (IV) infusion in a clinical setting, typically every 2 or 3 weeks. It should not be self-administered.
• Uses:Bevatas 100 is primarily used in combination with other chemotherapy drugs to treat various types of advanced or metastatic cancers, including:
  • Cancer of the colon and rectum (colorectal cancer)
  • Non-small cell lung cancer
  • Kidney cancer (renal cell carcinoma)
  • Certain types of brain tumors (glioblastoma)
  • Ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer
  • Cervical cancer
  • Metastatic breast cancer (in some regions/contexts)

• Common Side Effects:These may include nosebleeds, headache, high blood pressure (hypertension), protein in the urine (proteinuria), changes in taste or speech, dry skin, back pain, loss of appetite, and constipation.
• Serious Warnings:
  • Bleeding & Wound Healing:Bevatas increases the risk of bleeding and can impair wound healing. Patients should inform their doctor before any surgery (including dental surgery) and generally should not receive the drug for at least 28 days before or after a major procedure or until the wound is fully healed.
  • Hypertension:Blood pressure must be monitored regularly during treatment, as the drug can cause severe high blood pressure.
  • Pregnancy/Breastfeeding:The medication is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding due to potential harm to the baby. Effective contraception must be used during treatment and for six months after the last dose.
  • Other Risks:Other potential severe side effects include gastrointestinal perforations, blood clots, and heart problems.
