About

Knilonat 200mg Capsule is an antineoplastic medication containing the active ingredient Nilotinib, which belongs to the class of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It is used to treat Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (Ph-positive CML), a type of blood cancer characterized by the abnormal production of white blood cells. This medicine is prescribed for both adults and children who are newly diagnosed with CML, those who cannot tolerate previous treatments, or whose condition no longer responds to earlier therapies, including Imatinib.

Do not use Knilonat if you are allergic to Nilotinib or any of its components. Inform your doctor if you have a history of heart problems such as heart attacks, abnormal heart rhythms, chest pain, stroke, or peripheral artery disease (claudication). Let your doctor know if you have liver or pancreatic disorders or suffer from low potassium or magnesium levels. It is important to disclose all current medications, especially those used to lower blood cholesterol. Also, inform your doctor if you have or have ever had a hepatitis B infection, as this medication may reactivate the virus, which can be life-threatening. Avoid grapefruit or grapefruit juice during treatment. If you are lactose intolerant, notify your doctor, as this medicine contains lactose.

During treatment, your doctor will regularly monitor your blood to assess liver and pancreas function, blood cell counts (WBCs, RBCs, and platelets), heart activity (particularly QT interval prolongation), electrolyte balance, and levels of blood sugar and fats to ensure the medication is well tolerated. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Effective contraception is recommended during treatment with Knilonat 200mg Capsule.
