Geftinat 250 mg (Gefitinib) is specified against a type of lung cancer (non-small cell) wherein cells are mutated in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). EGFR is expressed on the cell surface of these cancerous cells. Geftinat 250 mg (Gefitinib) selectively targets the proteins that are mutated in these cells. It is taken orally as a 250 mg dose once daily with or without food.
Additional properties of Geftinat 250 mg (Gefitinib):
Once Geftinat 250 mg (Gefitinib) enters our system, it takes around 3 to 7 hours for absorbing at least 60% of the drug. With 90% binding affinity with cancerous cells, Gefitinib carries out anti-cancer activities by metabolizing in the liver. Finally, more than 50% of the drug gets excreted out of the system within 2 days.
