Product Introduction
Azacitidine 100mg is an injectable hypomethylating anticancer medicine for myelodysplastic syndromes and selected related myeloid malignancies. It acts on abnormal blood-cell development in the bone marrow.
How to use
A clinical team reconstitutes the vial for the appropriate subcutaneous or intravenous regimen. Treatment is delivered in repeated cycles, often with medicine to prevent nausea. Injection sites are rotated when the subcutaneous route is used.
How it works
Azacitidine incorporates into nucleic acids and inhibits DNA methyltransferases, altering abnormal methylation and interfering with malignant-cell survival.
Side effects
Low blood counts, infection, bruising, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation and injection-site reactions can occur.
Important information
Blood counts and kidney and liver function are monitored through treatment. Fever during a low-white-cell period requires urgent assessment. Injectable and oral azacitidine are not interchangeable.
Uses
- Myelodysplastic syndromes and selected related myeloid blood cancers under a disease-specific regimen.
Benefits
Treatment can improve blood-cell production, reduce transfusion needs and delay disease progression in responsive patients.
How quickly is response judged?
Several cycles may be needed before benefit becomes clear. Early blood-count changes alone do not define the final response.
Is oral azacitidine a direct replacement?
No. Oral and injectable products have different exposure and treatment roles.
Why can transfusions still be needed early on?
Abnormal marrow function and treatment-related suppression can persist before an improvement occurs.
What does fever during treatment mean?
It may indicate infection during neutropenia and needs immediate contact with the oncology team, even if other symptoms are mild.
