Nilotinib, Indication, Dosage, Side Effect

Indication

Nilotinib is used to treat a type of blood cancer called chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in patients who have a specific genetic change known as the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph+). It is prescribed for patients in the chronic or accelerated phase of CML, either as a first-line treatment or when other medicines like imatinib don’t work or cause side effects. Nilotinib works by blocking a protein called BCR-ABL, which helps cancer cells grow.

Dosage

Nilotinib is usually prescribed to treat chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in patients who are Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+). The typical adult dose is 300 mg taken twice a day, about 12 hours apart, on an empty stomach—at least 2 hours after eating and 1 hour before the next meal. In some resistant or advanced cases, the dose may be 400 mg twice daily. The capsules should be swallowed whole with water.

Note:

Food can increase the absorption too much and raise the risk of side effects, so timing with meals is very important.

Regular blood tests and heart monitoring (ECG) are needed to check for side effects like QT prolongation.

Never adjust or skip doses without consulting your doctor.
