Gemcite 200mg Injection contains Gemcitabine Hydrochloride, an anti-metabolite chemotherapy medicine used in the treatment of pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and bladder cancer.

Gemcite 200mg Injection is administered only by a trained healthcare professional as a slow intravenous infusion, usually over 30 minutes, after the powder is reconstituted. It is commonly given on a weekly schedule within a treatment cycle, and may be combined with other cancer medicines such as cisplatin, carboplatin, or paclitaxel. Your doctor will decide the dose and schedule based on your body surface area, blood counts, and response to treatment. It should never be self-administered. Do not refrigerate the vial or the reconstituted solution.

Nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and low blood cell counts are among the most common effects of this medicine. Your doctor will advise regular blood tests to monitor your blood counts, liver function, and kidney function during treatment.
