Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Nimotuzumab in Biomab 50mg Injection works by binding to a specific part of a protein on cancer cells known as the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). This protein facilitates the growth and spread of cancer cells. When Nimotuzumab binds to the EGFR, it prevents other substances, referred to as growth factors, from attaching and stimulating the cancer cells. This action helps to slow the growth and spread of the cancer.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Tell your doctor about all the medicines, supplements or herbals you are currently taking or might take to avoid any possible interaction.
