Aftiways 40mg Tablet is a targeted cancer therapy medication containing Afatinib dimaleate, designed to treat specific types of lung cancer. It works by blocking proteins that help cancer cells grow and spread, making it an effective option for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has specific genetic mutations. This medication is prescribed when standard treatments may not be effective, offering patients a personalized approach to cancer care based on their tumor's genetic profile.
Aftiways 40mg is used to treat two main types of advanced lung cancer: NSCLC with specific EGFR gene mutations and advanced NSCLC that has progressed despite platinum-based chemotherapy treatment. Before starting this medication, inform your doctor about your complete medical history, current medications, and any allergies. This medicine is not suitable for patients under 18 years old, pregnant women, or those with certain health conditions.
Key points
Aftiways 40mg works by inhibiting a family of proteins called ErbB, which includes EGFR and HER2 receptors. These receptors are often abnormally active in cancer cells, causing them to multiply uncontrollably. By blocking these proteins, Aftiways slows or stops cancer cell growth and helps prevent the spread of the disease. This targeted approach makes it effective for patients whose cancer has specific genetic mutations affecting these growth factor receptors.
Aftiways 40mg Tablet is an oral medication taken once daily at approximately the same time each day. Consistency is important for maintaining steady levels of the medication in your body. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water—do not crush, chew, or open it, as this affects how your body absorbs the medication.
