TAB Imatinib 400mg, available at Maharashtra Medical in Pune, is a pivotal medication widely prescribed for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), and other cancers driven by specific genetic abnormalities. Imatinib mesylate, the active ingredient in this tablet, belongs to a class of drugs known as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). These inhibitors work by blocking the activity of abnormal proteins, such as BCR-ABL in CML and KIT in GISTs, which are responsible for promoting cancer cell growth.
Imatinib 400mg tablets are taken orally and are highly effective in targeting cancer cells while sparing normal cells, which helps minimize side effects. The medication is known for its ability to induce remission in CML and control the progression of GISTs, significantly improving patient outcomes and quality of life. It is often prescribed as a first-line therapy for newly diagnosed CML patients and as a standard treatment option for GISTs that cannot be removed by surgery or have metastasized.
