The active ingredient in Nintib 150 Capsule is Nintedanib (150 mg). This medicine works on your body in the following ways:

• Tyrosine Kinase Inhibition: Nintedanib blocks the activity of certain enzymes called tyrosine kinases. These enzymes play a crucial role in signalling pathways leading to inflammation, scarring, and fibrosis in lung tissues.

• Slows down Lung Fibrosis: By inhibiting these tyrosine kinases, Nintedanib helps slow the progression of lung fibrosis, which is the thickening and scarring of lung tissue.

• Controls Tumour Growth: In the case of NSCLC, the kinase inhibitor activity of Nintedanib also helps control and slow down the growth and proliferation of tumour cells.

• Store your Nintib 150 Capsule at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Keep it in a tightly sealed container to protect from air and moisture.

• Retain the medicine in its original blister packaging for extra protection.

• Always keep it out of reach of children.

• Use the medicine before its expiry date for optimal effectiveness.

• As smoking can reduce the effectiveness of Nintib 150 Capsule, you should aim to quit or at least reduce your smoking habits.

• Try to incorporate a diet rich in high-quality proteins and antioxidants. This can help manage lung diseases like idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and interstitial lung diseases by supporting your immune system and reducing inflammation.
