About this active substance

Lenalidomide is a medication used for the treatment of multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndromes, and other hematologic conditions. It works by modulating the immune system and inhibiting tumor cell growth.

The medication is taken orally, usually once daily, as part of a treatment cycle prescribed by a doctor. Regular monitoring of hematologic function is important, and precautions must be taken to avoid pregnancy.

Side effects may include fatigue, anemia, neutropenia, or skin rashes. In rare cases, deep vein thrombosis or severe allergic reactions may occur.

Lenalidomide is not recommended for pregnant women or those planning to become pregnant, as well as patients with hypersensitivity to this medication.
