Bortezomib (2 Mg)

Bortezom 2mg Injection 1 is designed to manage multiple myeloma, a cancer of plasma cells in the bone marrow. This medicine is part of a group known as proteasome inhibitors.

In addition to this primary use, this injection is also used to manage mantle cell lymphoma, a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma affecting the lymph nodes in adults who have undergone at least one previous therapy.

This medicine should be administered as directed by your doctor in a healthcare setting. It's vital to inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications before starting this medicine. If you notice any side effects while on this medicine, notify your doctor immediately. Continue with the medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Bortezom 2mg Injection 1 is used for the following:

Managing multiple myeloma, a type of cancer affecting plasma cells in the bone marrow
Control of mantle cell lymphoma, a form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma affecting lymph nodes, in adults who have previously received other therapies

Bortezom 2mg Injection 1 is administered as follows:

Bortezom 2mg Injection 1 is administered by a healthcare professional in a healthcare setting under the supervision of an experienced oncologist.

Bortezom 2mg Injection 1 may have the following common side effects:

Nausea
Vomiting
Diarrhoea
Constipation
Fatigue, weakness
Peripheral neuropathy: This is a condition where you might feel numbness, tingling, or a burning sensation in your hands and feet.
Thrombocytopenia: In this case, your body has a lower-than-normal count of platelets, the cells that help your blood to clot.
Decreased appetite
Muscle pain

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Bortezom 2mg Injection 1. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Nausea: Follow the dietary recommendations advised by your doctor to manage this effect.
Fatigue, weakness: Ensure adequate rest after receiving the dose of this injection.

Bortezom 2mg Injection 1 contains bortezomib (2 mg) which works on your body as follows:

Inhibits 26S Proteasome: Bortezomib works by blocking the 26S proteasome in your body. The proteasome is a complex within cells responsible for breaking down damaged or unneeded proteins.
Disrupts Cancer Cell Signalling: By inhibiting the proteasome, bortezomib disrupts multiple signalling pathways within the cancer cells. This leads to cell cycle arrest.
Induces Apoptosis: The disruption of the cell signalling pathways eventually leads to apoptosis, or programmed cell death, slowing tumour growth and spread.

Pregnancy

Bortezom 2mg Injection 1 should be avoided during pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, it's crucial to discuss this with your doctor before starting this medication.

This medicine is not recommended for breastfeeding women. Always consult your doctor to understand the potential risks and benefits.
