Detailed Information

Introduction

Bonitar 100mg Tablet contains bosutinib, a targeted cancer medication belonging to a class of drugs called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It is prescribed to treat Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukaemia (Ph+ CML), a type of blood cancer where the body produces excessive granulocytes (white blood cells). Bonitar is used for newly diagnosed patients or those whose previous CML treatments have not worked, failed, or are unsuitable.

Philadelphia chromosome-positive CML is a serious condition affecting bone marrow function and blood cell production. Bonitar works by blocking specific enzymes that fuel cancer cell growth, helping to slow or stop the disease's progression. This medication is an important treatment option for eligible adult patients with Ph+ CML.
