CAPECITABINE TABLET 500MG
Capecitabine Tablet 500mg is a prescription oral chemotherapy medicine classified as an antimetabolite. It is widely prescribed for the treatment of breast, colorectal, and gastric cancers. This tablet is often used alone or as part of a combination therapy under the supervision of an oncologist.
Capecitabine 500 mg Tablet is converted into 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in the body, which interferes with DNA synthesis in cancer cells. Disrupting the cellular replication process, it helps slow tumor growth and enhances the effectiveness of other anticancer agents when used in combination therapy.
Taken orally, Capecitabine 500 mg Tablet is administered in carefully scheduled cycles with rest periods, as determined by a healthcare professional. This dosing approach helps maximize treatment efficacy while minimizing side effects, providing a convenient option for patients undergoing chemotherapy.
