Composition:
GEFITINIB-250MG
Uses:
Treatment of Non-small cell lung cancer
Medicinal Benefits:
Geftistar Tablet is indicated to the patients dealing with non-small cell lung cancer. Cancer of this type tends to spread quickly in other parts of the body. Geftistar Tablet travels through the bloodstream and effectively destroys cancerous cells of the lung and other parts of the body. Geftistar Tablet is a ' tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)', that stops the uncontrolled growth and spread of cancerous cells. It acts by stopping the abnormal protein action that is responsible for the multiplication of cancerous cells. Whenever a new healthy cell is formed, it undergoes a usual process of maturity. Cancerous cells form new cells more quickly, so Geftistar Tablet targets cancerous cells and blocks the action of Tyrosine kinase enzymes (responsible for causing cancer). It also decreases the blood supply to cancer tumors to slow down the growth of the tumor. In this way, Geftistar Tablet stops the production, spread and growth of cancerous cells in the body.
