How does this medicine work?

Ribociclib is a CDK inhibitor (cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor) and selectively inhibits CDK4 and CDK6. The CDK4 and CDK6 proteins are found both in healthy cells as well as in cancer cells. They control the multiplication and division of cells. In breast cancer, these proteins can become overactive and cause the cells to grow and divide uncontrollably. CDK4/6 inhibitors like ribociclib interrupt these proteins to slow or even stop the cancer cells from growing abnormally.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Kryxana 200 mg tablets may interact with other medicinal products hence please share complete information with your doctor of all the medicines you are taking.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, sore mouth, loss of appetite, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, rash, hair loss, headache, and dizziness are some of the side effects of Kryxana. Inform your doctor if any side effects bother you or do not go away on their own.
Patients should take Kryxana 200 at the same time every day, preferably in the morning. If the patient vomits after taking the dose or misses a dose, no additional doses should be taken that day.
