Lynparza tablet is an anti-cancer medicine containing olaparib as its active ingredient. It works by a key repair mechanism in cancer cells, making it difficult for them to repair their damaged DNA and leading to their inability to grow and spread. This targeted approach helps in the treatment of certain types of cancer, particularly those with defects in DNA repair pathways.
Women of childbearing potential should not be pregnant when starting treatment with Lynparza tablet, and they should use effective contraception throughout the course of therapy and for one month after the last dose. Before initiating treatment, a pregnancy test is recommended for all women capable of becoming pregnant.

Q: Why do some anti-cancer medicines increase the risk of infections?
A: Some anticancer medicines lower your white blood cells, which help fight infections. Therefore, your body may take longer to recover, even from a mild infection. When on treatment for cancer, one should exercise extra care to reduce the risk of any kind of infection and stay as protected as possible.
Q: Why do I experience nose bleeds? Is it normal when taking anti-cancer medications?
