Cytax 260 Mg Injection 1 Ml contains paclitaxel (260 mg) and works in the following ways:

• Promotes Microtubule Assembly: Paclitaxel helps assemble microtubules, maintaining cell shape and assisting in cell functions.

• Stabilises Tubulin Polymers: By stabilising tubulin polymers, essential components of a cell's structure, paclitaxel inhibits cell division.

• Inhibits Cell Proliferation: The stabilisation of tubulin polymers disrupts normal cell division dynamics, effectively slowing down or halting the spread of cancer cells.

• Induces Apoptosis: This medicine induces apoptosis, a process where damaged or harmful cells self-destruct, helping to control the spread of cancer.
