About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Erlocip 100 Tablet: For Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Erlotinib (100mg) is a potent tyrosine kinase inhibitor used in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This tablet provides patients with a targeted approach to manage specific mutations within their tumor cells, contributing to improved treatment effectiveness.
Erlotinib works by blocking the activity of epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) – often overexpressed in NSCLC tumors. By inhibiting these signaling pathways, Erlocip reduces tumor cell growth and proliferation. This medication is typically prescribed for patients with NSCLC who have locally advanced or metastatic disease, and who are not candidates for other therapies such as surgery or chemotherapy.
Important Note: This medication should only be taken under the guidance of a qualified medical professional. It's crucial to consult your doctor before starting any new treatment regimen.
Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for dosage and usage.
