Brand name: Bortenat

Active Ingeridents(Generic Name) : Bortezomib

Company Name: Natco Pharma

Package: 1 vial

Strength : 3.5mg

Indication:

It is the first therapeutic proteasome inhibitor to be tested in humans. Proteasomes are cellular complexes that break down proteins. In some cancers, the proteins that normally kill cancer cells are broken down too quickly. Bortezomib interrupts this process and lets those proteins kill the cancer cells. It is approved in the U.S. for treating relapsed multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma. In multiple myeloma, complete clinical responses have been obtained in patients with otherwise refractory or rapidly advancing disease.

Mechanism of action:

The boron atom in bortezomib binds the catalytic site of the 26S proteasome^] with high affinity and specificity. In normal cells, the proteasome regulates protein expression and function by degradation of ubiquitylated proteins, and also cleanses the cell of abnormal or misfolded proteins. Clinical and preclinical data support a role in maintaining the immortal phenotype of myeloma cells, and cell-culture and xenograft data support a similar function in solid tumor cancers.

Dosage and Administration:

Use bortezomib as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

· Drinking extra fluids while you are taking bortezomib is recommended. Check with your doctor for instructions.

· Bortezomib is given as an injection into a vein or under the skin at your doctor's office, hospital, or clinic. Bortezomib is not intended to be injected into the spinal cord. Contact your health care provider if you have any questions.

· It is very important that each dose is given at the scheduled time. If you miss a dose of bortezomib, contact your doctor right away to establish a new dosing schedule. Do not use 2 doses at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use bortezomib.

Side effects:

Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome:

Constipation; diarrhea; dizziness; headache; loss of appetite; mild stomach pain; nausea; stomach upset; taste changes; tiredness; trouble sleeping; vomiting; weakness.

Precaution:

· Bortezomib may cause dizziness, fatigue, fainting, or vision changes. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use bortezomib with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.

· Bortezomib may cause dizziness, light-headedness, or fainting; alcohol, hot weather, exercise, or fever may increase these effects. To prevent them, sit up or stand slowly, especially in the morning. Sit or lie down at the first sign of any of these effects.

Store:

Store the medicine in a closed container at room temperature, away from heat, moisture, and direct light. Keep from freezing.Keep out of the reach of children.Do not keep outdated medicine or medicine no longer needed.

Brand name Tacrograf??

Active Ingeridents(Generic Name) Tacrolimus

Company Name Biocon??

Package 10 caps In strip

Strength 1mg

Indication indicated for organ transplant rejection prophylaxis. Patients are prescribed this medicine after an organ transplant, so as to help prevent the immune system from attacking the organ and to stop the body rejecting the transplant.

Mechanism of action Tacrolimus is a macrolide calcineurin inhibitor. In T-cells, activation of the T-cell receptor normally increases intracellular calcium, which acts via calmodulin to activate calcineurin. Calcineurin then dephosphorylates the transcription factor nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NF-AT), which moves to the nucleus of the T-cell and increases the activity of genes coding for IL-2 and related cytokines. Tacrolimus prevents the dephosphorylation of NF-AT. In detail, Tacrolimus reduces peptidyl-prolyl isomerase activity by binding to the immunophilin FKBP12 (FK506 binding protein) creating a new complex. This FKBP12-FK506 complex interacts with and inhibits calcineurin, thus inhibiting both T-lymphocyte signal transduction and IL-2 transcription. Although this activity is similar to that of ciclosporin, the incidence of acute rejection is reduced by tacrolimus use over ciclosporin. Although short-term immunosuppression concerning patient and graft survival is found to be similar between the two drugs, tacrolimus results in a more favorable lipid profile, and this may have important long-term implications given the prognostic influence of rejection on graft survival.??

??

Dosage and Administration Oral tacrolimus is taken twice daily. Starting doses range between 0.075 mg/kg/day to 0.2 mg/kg/day. Doses vary widely and are based on tests that measure the amount of tacrolimus in the blood. Taking tacrolimus with food can reduce some of the abdominal pain that can occur with this medicine; however, food can reduce the amount of tacrolimus that is absorbed. This is especially true with fatty foods. Capsules should be taken consistently with or without food in order to avoid major swings in blood levels. Grapefruit juice increases blood levels of tacrolimus and should be avoided. The injection is only used for patients who cannot tolerate tacrolimus capsules.??

??

Side effects

Tacrolimus is associated with many and various side effects. These include

?? baldness,anemia,loss of appetite,diarrhea,high concentrations of potassium in the blood,high blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, ,tingling sensation in the extremities, itching, tremor, fever, headache, rash, high blood sugar concentrations, and, abdominal pain.

??

Precaution

An overdose Tacrolimus Unlikely to threaten life, call an emergency room or a poison control center for advice if you suspect that a very large dose of Tacrolimus has been ingested.

There are no restrictions on food, beverages, or activities while taking Tacrolimus otherwise directed by your physician.??

Store Tacrolimus is usually handled and stored by a health care provider. If you are using tacrolimus at home, store tacrolimus as directed by your pharmacist or health care provider. Keep tacrolimus out of the reach of children and away from pets.
