Description
Tipanat 8.19mg/20mg Tablet is a combination of two medicines that treat cancer of the colon and rectum that has spread to other parts of the body (metastasized). It works by stopping or slowing down the growth of cancer cells. Tipanat 8.19mg/20mg Tablet should be taken with food, but try to have it at the same time every day to get the most benefit. Your doctor will decide what dose is necessary and how often you need to take it. This will depend on what you are being treated for and may change from time to time. You should take it exactly as your doctor has advised. Taking it in the wrong way or taking too much can cause very serious side effects.
Tipanat 20mg tablet is an anticancer medication containing the two active constituents Trifluridine and Tipiracil. It is used to treat adults with colon and rectum cancer when it reaches the metastases stage (cancer has spread to other parts of the body) and when other treatments are unsuitable. Trifluridine inhibits the growth of cancer cells, whereas Tipiracil stops the Trifluridine from being broken down and helps it to work longer. Cancer is a condition in which the cells multiply uncontrolled and abnormally. This medicine is not recommended for adolescents and children under 18.
Do not consume this medicine if you are allergic to Tipanat 20mg or other ingredients. Before starting the treatment, notify your doctor if you have a problem with your kidney or liver and are lactose intolerant. This treatment may lead to side effects such as neutropenia (lowered WBC), anemia (reduced number of RBC), and gastrointestinal problems. Report your doctor if you experience any side effects or symptoms. Dose adjustment is needed in patients with a kidney condition. Inform your doctor if you are preganat or planning to get pregnant; this medicine may harm the unborn baby, so use contraception by both males and females during and after the treatment for six months.
