DACAREX 200MG INJECTION is a chemotherapeutic medicine used in the treatment of skin cancer. Cancer is a condition where the cells grow and reproduce uncontrollably in a specific body part. These cancerous cells can attack and destroy surrounding healthy tissue and organs. DACAREX 200MG INJECTION is used in the treatment of metastatic malignant melanoma. It is a serious condition in which the cancer grows in melanocytes and also spreads to other parts of the body. DACAREX 200MG INJECTION is also used as a second-line therapy in the treatment of Hodgkin’s Disease when used in combination with other approved drugs.
DACAREX 200MG INJECTION contains Dacarbazine, which belongs to the class of alkylating agents. It works by inhibiting the DNA and RNA transcription that is essential for protein synthesis. This helps prevent the growth and further spread of cancerous or non-cancerous cells.
DACAREX 200MG INJECTION may cause certain side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, and pain at the site of injection. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor. DACAREX 200MG INJECTION is a parenteral preparation. A trained healthcare professional will administer it.

Metastatic Malignant Melanoma: Melanoma is a type of skin cancer in which the cancer cells grow in melanocytes. It is mainly caused by harmful UV radiation from the sun. When the cancer cells spread to other parts of the body, it is known as Metastasis. Malignant melanoma is common in fair-skinned and freckled individuals. It results in mole formation, typically on the skin of the face.
Hodgkin’s Disease: Hodgkin’s disease or lymphoma is a blood cancer of a certain type of cells called WBCs, specifically lymphocytes. Lymphocytes normally help control infection and maintain the body's normal immunity. However, in a cancerous state, there is an abnormal multiplication of these blood cells, causing many problems such as fatigue, fever, loss of appetite, itching, night sweats and lymph node swelling.
