Paclitaxel 100mg/16.7mL Injection
SKU GME1330Oncology Care
Product Introduction
Paclitaxel 100mg/16.7mL is a taxane chemotherapy used in selected breast, ovarian, lung and other cancer regimens. This conventional injection is distinct from albumin-bound paclitaxel.
How to use
The concentrate is diluted and administered by intravenous infusion using compatible equipment. Conventional solvent-based paclitaxel usually requires premedication against hypersensitivity. The infusion site is monitored for leakage.
How it works
Paclitaxel stabilises microtubules and prevents their normal breakdown, disrupting cell division and leading to death of susceptible cancer cells.
Side effects
Low blood counts, hair loss, peripheral neuropathy, muscle or joint pain, nausea and infusion reactions can occur.
Important information
Blood counts and liver function guide treatment. Previous severe taxane or solvent reactions are important. Fever, new marked numbness or infusion-site burning should be reported promptly.
Uses
- Selected breast, ovarian, non-small-cell lung and other cancer treatment regimens.
Benefits
Interfering with tumour-cell division can shrink or control a responsive cancer within a planned chemotherapy course.
Is albumin-bound paclitaxel interchangeable?
No. The formulation, preparation, premedication and dose can differ.
Why report tingling in fingers or toes?
It can indicate treatment-related neuropathy, which may require adjustment before it worsens.
Does hair usually grow back?
Treatment-related hair loss is often temporary, although the timing and completeness of regrowth vary.
What if the infusion site burns or swells?
Tell the nurse immediately. Leakage into surrounding tissue can cause irritation or injury.
