Description
Soranib Tablet is an anticancer medicine used for the treatment of advanced kidney cancer, liver cancer, and thyroid cancer. It works by blocking certain proteins and enzymes that promote the growth and spread of cancer cells. By interfering with these processes, Soranib helps slow down the progression of the disease and manage cancer-related symptoms.
It is important to take Soranib Tablet on an empty stomach, at the same time every day, exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage and frequency are determined based on your condition, and it is essential not to alter the dose without consulting a medical professional. Taking the medicine incorrectly or in excess can increase the risk of serious side effects.
Some common side effects of Soranib Tablet include fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite, hair thinning, and diarrhoea. Patients may also experience high blood pressure while on this medicine, so regular blood pressure monitoring is recommended. Severe reactions, such as rashes, pain, swelling, or redness in the hands and feet, should be reported to your doctor immediately.
Before starting Soranib, inform your doctor about your complete medical history, including any heart, liver, kidney problems, or high blood pressure. It is also important to provide a full list of medications, supplements, or herbal products you are taking, as drug interactions may occur. This will help your doctor ensure your treatment is safe and effective.
Soranib Tablet is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Both male and female patients should use effective contraception throughout the treatment to prevent pregnancy. Following your doctor’s instructions carefully, attending regular check-ups, and reporting any unusual symptoms promptly will help you achieve the best results while minimizing risks.
