VEGFXTA 400MG INJ VIAL

About

Vegfxta 400mg Injection is an anticancer medication used to treat colon and rectum cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, kidney cancer, brain tumors, ovarian cancer, and cervical cancer. It works by preventing the formation of new blood vessels that feed tumors, thereby stopping tumor growth.

This medicine is often used as a first-line treatment in combination with other anticancer drugs. It is administered as an infusion, either through a small needle in a vein or via a port placed under the skin. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose and duration, and monitor you for signs of infusion reactions such as high blood pressure or difficulty breathing. Treatment with Vegfxta continues as long as your disease is controlled and side effects are manageable. Your doctor will decide if or when the medication should be stopped. Regular monitoring of blood pressure and urine protein levels may be recommended during treatment.

Common side effects include nosebleeds, headache, high blood pressure, rhinitis, protein in urine, changes in taste, dry skin, bleeding, tearing disorders, back pain, and exfoliative dermatitis. Inform your doctor before any surgical procedure, as Vegfxta can impair wound healing. It may also increase the risk of bleeding, so contact your doctor immediately if you notice unusual bleeding.

Before starting Vegfxta, tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Many other medicines may interact with Vegfxta, so provide your healthcare team with a complete list of medications you are using.
