The most common symptom of prostate cancer is difficulty with urination, but sometimes there are no symptoms at all. Zytax 20mg Injection decreases or stops the growth of cancer cells by decreasing the amount of testosterone (natural hormone in males) in men. This also relieves difficulty in passing urine and makes it easier for you to urinate.

3. Non-small cell lung cancer

What is Zytax 20mg Injection used for?
Zytax 20mg (Docetaxel) is an anti-cancer medicine used to treat breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, and head and neck cancers.
Docetaxel can cause severe or fatal liver toxicity, so it’s generally not given to patients with abnormal liver function. It can also cause severe allergic reactions — your doctor will typically give you a corticosteroid before each dose to help reduce this risk — as well as fluid retention and severe drops in blood cell counts.
Like in its other uses, Docetaxel works by disrupting the microtubule structures that cancer cells need to divide and multiply, which slows tumor growth. It is often used alongside hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer, rather than working by lowering testosterone itself.
It works by disrupting microtubule structures needed for cancer cells to divide and multiply, which slows the growth of cancer cells and eventually kills them.
It is given as an infusion by a qualified medical professional. Your doctor will determine the dose and schedule based on your condition and how your body responds to treatment.
Each vial contains 20mg of Docetaxel, manufactured by Zydus, made in India.
