About

Leutero 50mg Injection is used to prevent the toxic effects of methotrexate, an anticancer medication. It is also administered in cases of methotrexate overdose.

This injection is given slowly into a vein under the supervision of a healthcare professional. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose and frequency based on your specific condition, and adjustments may be made as needed. It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions precisely, as incorrect usage or overdose can lead to serious side effects.

Common side effects include reactions at the injection site, such as pain, swelling, or redness. If these effects become bothersome or seem severe, inform your doctor. There may be ways to manage or minimize them. Regular blood tests will be required to monitor your blood cell levels and methotrexate concentration in the bloodstream.

Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you have a history of seizures, liver or kidney issues, or if you are taking medications for infections. Since many medicines can interact with Leutero, especially phenytoin (used for seizures), it’s important to share a complete list of your medications with your healthcare provider. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor to ensure the medicine is safe for you and your baby.
