About this active substance
Mitomycin is a chemotherapy drug used for the treatment of certain types of cancer, including gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, and bladder cancer. It acts as an alkylating agent, interfering with DNA synthesis in cancer cells and inhibiting their division.
The medication is administered intravenously or intravesically, depending on the type and location of the cancer. It is effective in reducing tumor size and slowing disease progression.
Side effects may include nausea, vomiting, bone marrow suppression, increased risk of infections, and, in rare cases, pulmonary or renal toxicity. Close monitoring is essential during treatment.
Consult your doctor to discuss the benefits and risks of treatment with Mitomycin. This medication must be administered under the supervision of an oncology specialist.
