Pomavia 2 mg Capsule 21's

Pomavia 2Mg Capsule belongs to the group of immunomodulatory drugs used to treat a type of blood cancer called multiple myeloma in adults 18 years or older. Multiple myeloma, also known as myeloma, is a type of bone marrow cancer that affects several areas of the body, such as the spine, skull, pelvis, and ribs.

Pomavia 2Mg Capsule contains Pomalidomide. Pomalidomide is both a targeted therapy drug and an immunotherapy drug. It works in several different ways. It can help the immune system attack and destroy cancer cells (immune system modulator); it kills or stops cancer cells' growth (cancer growth inhibitor). On the other side, it can block the development of new blood vessels, which cancer cells need to grow and spread (angiogenesis inhibitor).

Pomavia 2Mg Capsule is a prescription-only medicine. Take Pomavia 2Mg Capsule as prescribed. Pomavia 2Mg Capsule may be taken with or without food. In some cases, Pomavia 2Mg Capsule may cause certain common side effects such as nausea, rash or allergic reactions, breathing problems, infection, low blood counts, bruising, chest pain, constipation, confusion, dizziness, diarrhoea, fever, faintness, and headaches. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if any of these side effects persist or worsen.

Before taking the Pomavia 2Mg Capsule , inform your doctor about all your allergic or hypersensitivity reactions to medicines or food. Pomavia 2Mg Capsule can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. It is critical not to become pregnant or get pregnant while undergoing therapy and for several months afterwards. Before beginning treatment, discuss effective contraception with your healthcare professional. Inform them immediately if you or your partner becomes pregnant while undergoing therapy. Breastfeeding is usually not advised during this treatment since it is unknown whether this medication passes into breast milk.

Before taking Pomavia 2Mg Capsule , inform your doctor about your medical history and other medications you are currently taking to rule out any potential negative effects. Avoid taking Pomavia 2Mg Capsule if you are pregnant or breastfeeding or allergic to any component present in Pomavia 2Mg Capsule . Both women and men using this Pomavia 2Mg Capsule should use birth control to avoid pregnancy. Inform your doctor if you have a history of infections; your doctor will closely monitor and manage it. Pomalidomide can lower the number of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets in the blood. Anaemia and weariness can result from a low red blood cell count. A blood transfusion may be required if you are anaemic. A low white blood cell count increases the risk of infection, necessitating additional precautions such as rigorous hand washing and avoiding infected people. A fever or temperature of 37°C or above indicates infection. If a patient's temperature is 38⁰ C or higher, medical attention should be sought right away.

Myeloma, also called multiple myeloma, is a cancer of the plasma cells. Plasma cells are white blood cells that make antibodies that protect us from infection. In myeloma, the cells grow too much, crowding out normal cells in the bone marrow that make red blood cells, platelets, and other white blood cells. Multiple myeloma, the most common type of plasma cell tumour, develops in the bone marrow and can spread throughout the body.
