Rasby Injection 1's

Rasby Injection is a recombinant version of the enzyme urate oxidase used to reduce uric acid levels in patients with leukaemia, lymphoma, and solid tumor malignancies receiving anti-cancer therapy. Leukaemia, or blood cancer, is a cancer of blood cells or blood-forming tissues. Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system.

Rasby Injection contains Rasburicase, which belongs to the class of recombinant urate-oxidase enzymes. It works by metabolising the recombinant urate oxidase enzyme and thus helps clear the uric acid levels.

Rasby Injection may cause certain side effects such as vomiting, nausea, fever, constipation, diarrhoea, oedema, headache, abdominal pain, anxiety, and injection site reactions. Most of these side effects of Rasby Injection do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. A trained healthcare professional will administer Rasby Injection. Hence, do not self-administer.

If you are allergic to Rasby Injection, inform your doctor and avoid taking it. Inform your doctor about your complete medical and medication history before starting treatment with Rasby Injection. Rasby Injection is contraindicated for pregnant women and breastfeeding women due to serious fetal harm. Hence, inform your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. Inform your doctor if you have/had kidney or liver disease.

Rasby Injection contains Rasburicase, which belongs to the recombinant urate-oxidase class of drugs. It works directly by metabolising the recombinant urate oxidase enzyme. This converts into allantoin, which is more soluble in urine. It makes it easier for the kidneys to excrete uric acid from the body.
