Palbociclib

Uses

Palbociclib Uses Palbociclib is used in the treatment of breast cancer. It is also used to treat patients with specific types of breast cancer, including estrogen receptor-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, that have spread to other organs. It is administered in conjunction with hormonal anticancer therapies.

How it Works

How Palbociclib works Palbociclib is an anti-cancer medication. Cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6, which are chemical messengers, are downstream of signaling pathways that lead to cell proliferation. This medication works by inhibiting cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6, thereby arresting the cancer cell cycle. Additionally, it targets estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells by disrupting the cell cycle.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Palbociclib include fatigue, hair loss, rash, vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, decreased appetite, infection, stomatitis (inflammation of the mouth), anemia (low red blood cell count), weakness, fever, and decreased white blood cell count.

Expert Advice

  • Take it with food, preferably at the same time every day.
  • If you forget to take the medicine or vomit, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule.
  • Do not take a double dose to compensate for a missed dose.
  • Use an effective contraception method to prevent pregnancy while taking this medicine.
  • This medication may cause dizziness; avoid driving or engaging in activities that require mental focus until you know how it affects you.
  • You may be required to have regular blood tests while taking this medication.
  • Inform your doctor if you notice symptoms of infection, such as fever, chills, or weakness.
  • Notify your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
  • Do not stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor first.
