About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Levin 400mg Tablets: Imatinib Mesylate
Levin 400mg Tablets contain Imatinib mesylate (400mg) as the active ingredient. This medication is prescribed for the treatment of certain types of cancer, including chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).
Mechanism: Imatinib works by inhibiting specific tyrosine kinases, particularly BCR-ABL, a protein involved in the uncontrolled growth of cancerous cells. It prevents these kinases from functioning, thereby hindering tumor growth.
Dosage & Administration: Levin 400mg Tablets are typically taken orally once daily at the recommended dose prescribed by a qualified healthcare professional. The dosage and duration of treatment may vary depending on individual patient needs and the specific type of cancer being treated.
Before taking Imatinib mesylate, always consult with your doctor to discuss potential risks, interactions, and appropriate usage. This medication may affect blood counts and require regular monitoring for potential side effects.
