About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Herlapsa Tablet: Combating HER2-Positive Breast Cancer
Herlapsa Tablet, containing Lapatinib (250mg), is a prescription medication used to treat certain types of breast cancer. Specifically, it's indicated for the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women and men who have not responded to other therapies or for whom surgery alone is insufficient.
Lapatinib works by blocking specific receptors (HER2) overexpressing on tumor cells, hindering their growth and spread. This targeted approach helps slow or halt the progression of HER2-positive breast cancer, contributing to better outcomes for patients.
Herlapsa Tablet should only be taken as prescribed by a medical professional. It's crucial to adhere to the recommended dosage and duration to maximize effectiveness and minimize potential side effects. Always consult your healthcare provider if you experience any changes or concerns during treatment.

About Lapatinib
Lapatinib is an anti-cancer medication classified as a kinase inhibitor, primarily used to treat HER2-positive breast cancer. It is often administered in combination with other therapies for advanced or metastatic cases. Lapatinib works by inhibiting the activity of the HER2 protein, which is overexpressed in some breast cancers, thus slowing down cancer cell growth and promoting apoptosis. In summary, it helps in the targeted treatment of specific breast cancer types.
How It Works
Lapatinib inhibits the tyrosine kinase activity of the HER2 receptor, blocking downstream signaling pathways that promote cancer cell proliferation and survival.
