Description
Introduction Of Pacshil 260mg Injection:
Pacshil 260mg Injection is an anticancer medicine that contains Paclitaxel, a taxane-group chemotherapy drug. It is used, alone or together with other medicines, to treat ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and non-small cell lung cancer. Each vial contains Paclitaxel 260 mg in 43.4 mL of concentrate, and it is for intravenous (I.V.) infusion only.
Pacshil 260mg Injection is diluted and given as a slow infusion into a vein by a doctor or trained nurse, in a hospital or cancer care centre. It is not for self-injection. It is usually given once every 3 weeks, and for some cancers together with a platinum medicine such as cisplatin or carboplatin. Your oncologist will calculate the dose from your height and weight and will decide the number of cycles. Before each dose, you will be given steroid and antihistamine medicines to lower the risk of an allergic reaction, and your blood counts will be checked.
Hair loss, tingling or numbness in the hands and feet, muscle and joint pain, and low blood counts are among the more common effects of this medicine. The injection contains alcohol and a castor oil-based solvent, so tell your doctor if you have liver problems, an alcohol problem, or an allergy to castor oil. Tell your doctor about all your medicines, and inform them immediately if you notice fever, chills, unusual bleeding, breathlessness, or flushing and itching during the infusion.

Benefits Of Pacshil 260mg Injection:
1. Ovarian cancer
Ovarian cancer often has no obvious symptoms until it has spread within the abdomen. Paclitaxel, usually combined with a platinum drug, is one of the standard chemotherapy options. It helps to kill cancer cells, reduce the size of the tumour, and delay the return of the disease.
2. Breast cancer
In breast cancer, this injection is used after other treatments or in combination regimens. It helps to destroy cancer cells and lowers the chance of the cancer spreading or coming back.
3. Non-small cell lung cancer
For advanced non-small cell lung cancer, paclitaxel is given with a platinum medicine such as cisplatin. This combination helps to slow the growth of the tumour and ease symptoms in patients who cannot have surgery or radiation alone.
