Description
Cyclophosphamide Tablets BP 50 mg is a chemotherapy medication used to treat various cancers, including breast cancer, lymphoma, leukemia, and ovarian cancer, as well as autoimmune disorders like lupus and vasculitis. Cyclophosphamide is an alkylating agent that works by interfering with the DNA of cancer cells, preventing them from replicating and leading to cell death. It also suppresses the immune system in certain autoimmune conditions.
The 50 mg dosage is typically taken orally, either as a standalone treatment or as part of a combination therapy regimen, depending on the specific cancer or condition being treated. Common side effects of Cyclophosphamide include nausea, vomiting, hair loss, bone marrow suppression (leading to low blood cell counts), and bladder irritation. Regular monitoring of blood counts, kidney function, and bladder health is crucial during treatment to manage side effects and ensure the medication’s effectiveness.
