Precautions and Warnings

Pregnancy

Pregnancy

Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or planning pregnancy. Mesna used with ifosfamide can harm an unborn baby and requires specialist advice.

Breast Feeding

Breast Feeding

Do not breastfeed during treatment with mesna used with ifosfamide. Ask your treatment team for feeding advice.

Driving

Driving

Avoid driving if mesna or the accompanying treatment makes you dizzy, tired, or unwell.

Alcohol

Alcohol

Ask your oncology team about alcohol during treatment because the accompanying medicines may make it unsafe.

Directions for Use

This injection will be given by a doctor or nurse in a hospital or clinic. Do not self-inject. Mesna is administered as part of the prescribed ifosfamide treatment plan, with urine monitoring as advised by the treatment team.

Storage and disposal

The hospital or clinic should store, prepare, and dispose of Cancena injection safely according to its storage instructions and hazardous-medicine procedures.

Quick Tips

  • Mesna protects against bladder irritation from ifosfamide and does not treat unrelated bleeding.
  • Attend urine and blood monitoring arranged by your treatment team.
  • Report rash, swelling, breathing difficulty, or blood in the urine promptly.

Dosage

Overdose

Too much mesna may cause nausea, vomiting, headache, or other side effects. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If an injection appointment is missed, contact the treatment team immediately. Do not self-administer or arrange a replacement injection. If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it's time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Mesna binds irritating ifosfamide breakdown products in the urine and makes them less harmful to the bladder lining. It protects the bladder when given as part of the prescribed ifosfamide treatment plan.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way mesna works or increase side effects. Tell your doctor about all medicines, vitamins, and supplements. In particular, tell your doctor if you are receiving ifosfamide, medicines that affect urine tests, or treatments that have caused a severe allergic or skin reaction.
