Platoxin 100 Mg Injection

What is Platoxin 100 mg

Platoxin 100 mg is a chemotherapy drug that contains Oxaliplatin, a platinum-based medication often used to treat Colorectal Cancer. It works by disrupting Cancer cells' DNA, which prevents them from growing and replicating, inhibiting the spread of Cancer in the body.

This tumor growth inhibitor may interact with other medicines, including blood thinners like Warfarin, antibiotics, and kidney function-improving treatments. It may also interact with other chemotherapeutic medications, potentially causing toxicity.

Patients should notify their doctor about any medicines, vitamins, and herbal products they are using to avoid potentially hazardous interactions.

Patients may experience increased sensitivity to cold temperatures, so they should avoid cold drinks, food, and exposure to extreme cold during and after treatment. Neuropathy (nerve damage) is a concern; any numbness, tingling, or strange sensations should be reported to your doctor immediately. Regular blood tests are required to track blood cell counts and organ function throughout therapy.

Platoxin is a potent Cancer-fighting medicine, but it must be administered under thorough medical supervision to ensure its safety and efficacy. Patients should carefully follow their doctor's instructions and report any unexpected symptoms throughout therapy.

Shantha Biotech manufactures this injection in a GMP-complaint facility.

What are the benefits of Platoxin 100 mg

Platoxin injection includes Oxaliplatin, a chemotherapeutic medicine used primarily to treat Colorectal Cancer by interfering with Cancer cells' DNA, stopping them from growing and replicating. Oxaliplatin is a platinum-based compound that establishes strong connections with the DNA of Cancer cells.

These connections cause DNA damage, making Cancer cells unable to repair or divide. As a result, Cancer cells eventually die, shrinking tumors and limiting their spread. Platoxin is typically used with other chemotherapy medicines to improve efficacy.
