About

Carstim 100mg Injection is used to treat cancers of the lymphatic system, brain, and certain types of bone marrow cancers. It may also be prescribed for other cancers. This medication can be given alone or in combination with other chemotherapy drugs.

Carstim 100mg Injection should be administered by a healthcare professional such as a doctor or nurse and should not be self-administered at home. The dosage and duration of treatment depend on your specific condition and its severity. It is important to receive the injection regularly for the full course as prescribed by your doctor.

Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, constipation, depression, drowsiness, speech difficulties, rash, hair loss, headache, weakness, fever, and pain. Some patients may experience more serious effects such as thrombophlebitis (inflammation of veins), paralysis on one side of the body, seizures, confusion, or brain swelling. Because Carstim is a powerful medication, it can lower your immune system’s ability to fight infections and may affect your blood, lungs, liver, or kidneys. Your doctor will recommend regular blood tests to monitor these effects.

Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you have any liver, lung, or kidney problems or if you are taking medications for infections. Since Carstim can interact with other drugs, make sure to tell your doctor about all medications you are using. This medicine is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, as it may harm the baby. You and your partner should use effective contraception and avoid becoming pregnant or fathering a child for several months after treatment has ended.
