Crizotinib, Indication, Dosage, Side Effect
Indication:
Crizotinib is a targeted cancer medicine prescribed for patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that tests positive for ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase) or ROS1 gene changes. These genetic mutations cause abnormal cell growth, and Crizotinib works by blocking the activity of these faulty proteins, helping to slow or stop the spread of cancer. It is specifically used when standard treatments are less effective due to these genetic factors.
Dosage:
Crizotinib is a targeted cancer medicine used to treat certain types of lung cancer, and the dosage is strictly determined by your doctor based on your condition and response to treatment. It is usually taken twice a day, about 12 hours apart. You should swallow the capsule whole with water—do not chew, crush, or open it. It can be taken with or without food, but it's best to take it at the same times each day to keep a consistent level in your body.
