About ПЕМЕТРЕКСЕД ФАРЕС
ПЕМЕТРЕКСЕД ФАРЕС is a prescription medication containing the active ingredient Pemetrexed, used in the treatment of pleural mesothelioma and non-small cell lung cancer. It belongs to a class of medications known as antifolates, which work by inhibiting the growth of cancer cells.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Treatment of pleural mesothelioma

Active Ingredient & Action
Pemetrexed works by inhibiting the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), which is necessary for the synthesis of tetrahydrofolate. Tetrahydrofolate is essential for the production of DNA and RNA, and its inhibition leads to the death of rapidly dividing cancer cells. Pemetrexed also inhibits the enzymes thymidylate synthase and glycinamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase, further contributing to its antitumor effects.
