Cazanat 20mg Tablet


Product introduction

Cazanat 20mg Tablet belongs to the class of medicines known as tyrosine kinase inhibitors used in the treatment of liver cancer, kidney cancer, and thyroid cancer.

Cazanat 20mg Tablet should be taken on an empty stomach, but try to have it at the same time every day to get the most benefits. Your doctor will decide what dose is necessary and how often you need to take it. This will depend on what you are being treated for and may change from time to time. Take it exactly as advised by the doctor. Taking it in the wrong way or taking too much can cause very serious side effects. It may take several weeks or months for you to see or feel the benefits but do not stop taking it unless your doctor tells you to.

Fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite, taste change, and diarrhea are some of the common side effects of Cazanat 20mg Tablet. It might cause high blood pressure, so the doctor may ask you for a regular check up of blood pressure. You must inform your doctor if you notice a severe skin reaction, such as skin rash or any pain, swelling, and redness of your hands and feet.

Before taking Cazanat 20mg Tablet, tell your doctor if you have heart disease, liver or kidney problems, or high blood pressure. Many other medicines can affect, or be affected by, this medicine, so let your healthcare team know about all the medications you are using. This medicine is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. The use of effective contraception by both males and females during the treatment with this drug is important to avoid pregnancy.

Benefits of Cazanat Tablet

In Treatment of Liver cancer

Liver cancer is the cancer that develops in the cells of the liver called hepatocytes. There may be no symptoms during the early stages of the cancer but as the disease advances to later stages, symptoms such as weight loss, stomach pain, vomiting, and yellowed skin may appear. Cazanat 20mg Tablet kills the cancer cells and prevents further growth and spread of the cancer to other unaffected areas. Drinking alcohol or smoking can worsen your condition and hinder your recovery, so avoid their use.

In Treatment of Kidney cancer

Cazanat 20mg Tablet is used to treat kidney cancer and its associated symptoms such as blood in the urine, unexplained low back pain or weight loss, fatigue, loss of appetite, etc. It stops cancer growth and prevents multiplication of cancer cells. This restricts the advancement of cancer to other unaffected regions. Follow your doctor’s instructions very carefully to recover.

In Treatment of Thyroid cancer

Thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of the neck. It produces hormones that regulate the heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, and weight. Thyroid cancer occurs in the cells of the thyroid, and it might not cause any symptoms at first. Cazanat 20mg Tablet restricts the oxygen supply of the cancer cells and stops their growth as well as further spread. It is a potent and very toxic medicine, and you should discuss its risks and benefits with your doctor. Avoid drinking alcohol or smoking while undergoing treatment with this drug, and drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.
