About Chemobine 1Gm Inj

Chemobine 1Gm Inj belongs to the group of anti-cancer drugs called cytotoxics used alone or in combination with other anti-cancer drugs to treat various types of cancers like breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, bladder cancer, and ovarian cancer. Cancer is the uninhibited and uncontrolled growth of cells in the body.

Chemobine 1Gm Inj contains Gemcitabine which works by interfering with the synthesis of DNA, thereby causing cell death and arresting the uncontrolled production of new cells. Thus, Chemobine 1Gm Inj is very effective in controlling cancer cells from multiplying and is used in the treatment of various types of cancers. 

A healthcare professional will administer Chemobine 1Gm Inj. Do not self-administer. Chemobine 1Gm Inj may cause certain common side effects such as nausea, hair loss, skin rash, vomiting, and oedema. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if these side effects persist. 

It is advisable to inform the doctor if you are allergic to any of the components. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or breastfeeding. Talk to your doctor if you are planning to father a child before taking Chemobine 1Gm Inj; your doctor may advise you regarding sperm storage. Avoid taking alcohol with Chemobine 1Gm Inj.
