About ЕПІРУБІЦИН-ТЕВА
ЕПІРУБІЦИН-ТЕВА is a medication containing the active ingredient Epirubicin, a chemotherapeutic agent used in the treatment of various types of cancer. It belongs to the anthracycline class of drugs and works by intercalating DNA strands, thereby inhibiting the synthesis of nucleic acids and inducing apoptosis in cancer cells.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Treatment of breast cancer, particularly in patients with metastatic disease or those who have not responded to other therapies.
- Treatment of other types of cancer, including ovarian, lung, and stomach cancer, under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional.
- May be used in combination with other chemotherapy agents to enhance treatment efficacy.
Active Ingredient & Action
Epirubicin, the active ingredient in ЕПІРУБІЦИН-ТЕВА, is a topoisomerase II inhibitor that works by binding to DNA and preventing the enzyme topoisomerase II from unwinding DNA strands. This action leads to the inhibition of DNA replication and transcription, ultimately resulting in the death of rapidly dividing cancer cells.
Important Notes
ЕПІРУБІЦИН-ТЕВА should only be used under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional. Patients with a history of heart disease, radiation exposure, or previous anthracycline therapy may be at increased risk of cardiac toxicity. Regular monitoring of liver function, kidney function, and complete blood counts is recommended during treatment. Adverse reactions may include myelosuppression, alopecia, nausea, and vomiting.
