Chemoflura 250 MG Injection 1 contains fluorouracil (250 mg), which works on the body by:

• Antimetabolite action: Fluorouracil acts as an antimetabolite, which means it interferes with the normal metabolic processes within cancer cells.

• Thymidylate synthase inhibition: It specifically blocks an enzyme called thymidylate synthase, which is essential for DNA production in cells.

• DNA synthesis disruption: By preventing the proper formation of DNA, fluorouracil stops cancer cells from creating new genetic material needed for cell division.

• RNA interference: The medicine also disrupts the formation of RNA (ribonucleic acid), further preventing cancer cells from functioning normally.

• Cell division prevention: Because it targets cells during their active division phase, it is particularly effective against rapidly growing tumour cells.

• Store Chemoflura 250 MG Injection 1 below 30°C in its original packaging.

• Keep the injection protected from light.

• Avoid refrigerating or freezing the medicine.

• Store out of reach of children.

• Check the expiry date before use and never use after this date.

• Maintain good nutrition during your cancer treatment with Chemoflura 250 MG Injection 1 by eating small, frequent meals with protein-rich foods (like eggs, lentils, and fish) to help your body cope with chemotherapy effects.

• Practise strict hygiene and avoid crowded places during treatment periods when your white blood cell count may be lower, reducing your risk of infections while receiving fluorouracil therapy.
