Description

Cycloxan (Cyclophosphamide 50mg) tablet is a chemotherapy drug containing the active constituent cyclophosphamide. It is used to treat various malignancies (abnormal production of cells is called cancer; if they spread, those are called malignancies). This tablet can be used to treat malignant lymphomas (cancers that start from the lymphatic system of the body- vessels, fluid, and lymphoid tissue) such as Hodgkin’s disease, lymphocytic lymphoma, and mixed-cell type lymphoma.

It treats leukemias, neuroblastoma, ovarian cancer, retinoblastoma, and breast carcinoma. It can also treat Minimal Change Nephrotic syndrome in pediatric patients (kidney disease in which large quantities of protein are lost in urine). Cycloxan 50mg tablet is contraindicated in pregnancy, patients with acute infections, urinary tract infections, urinary outflow obstruction, and bone marrow disorders.

Treatment with this medicine may lead to immune suppression, bone marrow failure, cardiotoxicity, renal toxicity, pulmonary toxicity, and secondary malignancies. Inform your doctor if you have pre-existing kidney disease, immune conditions, cardiac disorders, or liver diseases.
