CLOKERAN 2MG TABLET

CLOKERAN 2MG TABLET is used to treat certain types of blood and lymphatic cancers. The detailed uses of CLOKERAN 2MG TABLET are as follows:

• Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL): CLOKERAN 2MG TABLET helps by slowing down the division and growth of abnormal white blood cells in your bone marrow, helping to manage this slow-growing blood cancer.
• Hodgkin's lymphoma: CLOKERAN 2MG TABLET targets and destroys cancerous white blood cells in the lymphatic system, helping to shrink swollen lymph nodes and control the disease.
• Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma: CLOKERAN 2MG TABLET assists in treating other forms of lymphatic cancer by stopping the spread of abnormal lymphocytes throughout the body.

CLOKERAN 2MG TABLET provides real-world relief by targeting cancer cells directly, which helps manage your symptoms and slow down the progression of the disease.

• Reduces swelling: By shrinking cancerous lymph nodes, this medication helps relieve physical discomfort and pressure in your neck, underarms, or groin.
• Eases systemic symptoms: Controlling the underlying cancer helps reduce systemic symptoms such as heavy night sweats, unexplained weight loss, and persistent fatigue.
• Improves daily energy: As the level of abnormal cells in your blood and lymphatic system stabilises, many patients find they gradually regain their strength and energy for daily tasks.

• Take CLOKERAN 2MG TABLET on an empty stomach, as co-administration with food can reduce its bioavailability. It can be taken 1 hour before a meal or 2 hours after a meal.
• Follow the prescribed dosage and timing to ensure the medication works effectively.
• Swallow the whole tablet with a glass of water.
• Do not crush, chew or break it.

• Drink plenty of fluids: Try to drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your kidneys functioning well and to help flush the medication out of your system.
• Avoid crowds and sick people: Because this medicine lowers your white blood cell count, your body cannot fight off infections easily. Avoid close contact with anyone who has a cold, flu, or other contagious illness.
• Eat thoroughly cooked food: Protect your weakened immune system by avoiding raw foods like sushi, rare meats, unpasteurized dairy products, or unwashed produce.
• Practice gentle dental hygiene: Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and avoid flossing roughly to prevent your gums from bleeding, as your blood's clotting ability may be reduced during treatment.

• Do not break, crush, or split the tablets; handling damaged tablets can allow the active medicine to absorb through your skin or be inhaled.
• Always verify your blood test schedule with your doctor; regular blood tests are absolutely necessary to monitor your bone marrow function safely.
• Use highly effective birth control during treatment and for a period afterwards as advised by your doctor, as this medicine can cause severe birth defects.
• Avoid getting live vaccines (such as the shingles or nasal spray flu vaccine) while taking this medicine, as they can cause serious infections when your immune system is weak.
