Carfilive 60 mg Injection 1's is used to treat Multiple Myeloma. It contains Carfilzomib, which suppresses proteasomes that prevent protein breakdown in MM (multiple myeloma) cells. When proteasome function is stopped within the MM cell, a protein build-up occurs within the MM cell, which destroys the malignant cells. Sometimes, Carfilive 60 mg Injection 1's may cause side effects such as fatigue (feeling overtired), anaemia, nausea, thrombocytopenia (low platelet level), dyspnea (feeling short of breath), diarrhoea, and pyrexia (fever).
