Piclib Capsule

Piclib Capsule

Piclib Capsule is used to treat patients with metastatic breast cancer (oestrogen receptor positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative). This treatment is used in tandem with hormonal cancer medications.

To maximise its effects, take your daily Piclib Capsule at the same time each day, preferably with food. Your doctor should determine the appropriate dosage and how often you should take it. This will vary from treatment to treatment and may change over time. You should strictly follow your doctor’s instructions. Extremely harmful effects can occur if it is taken incorrectly or in excessive quantities. If your doctor has told you to continue taking the medication, do so even if you haven’t yet noticed any improvement; it may take several weeks or months before you feel any positive effects.

Weakness, hair loss, rash, vomiting, and diarrhoea are some of the most often reported adverse reactions to this medication. The potential for a drop in blood cell counts (both red and white) as a side effect of this medication raises the risk of infection. If you have any signs of infection, including a high temperature, chills, weakness, bleeding, bruising, or a bleeding nose, you should see a doctor. If you have dizziness as a result, you should not engage in potentially dangerous activities like driving or demanding attention.

Make sure to inform your doctor if you suffer heart disease, liver or kidney problems or taking any medicines to treat infections. You should inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking because this medication can interact with or be affected by them. Pregnant women and lactating mothers should not take this medication. During therapy, it is critical that both men and women use reliable methods of birth control to avoid becoming pregnant.

How it works

Piclib Capsule is an anti-cancer. Chemical messengers Cyclin dependent kinase 4 and 6 are downstream of signalling pathways that promote cell proliferation. This medication stops the growth of cancer cells by inhibiting cyclin dependent kinases 4 and 6. (cell growing process). By interfering with the cell cycle, it also targets breast cancer cells that have oestrogen (hormone) receptors.
