Have a query?
Herceptin 440 mg Injection is used to treat Breast Cancer and Stomach Cancer.
Herceptin 440 mg Injection contains Trastuzumab, which works by inhibiting the excess production of a protein called human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) in mammalian cells. This causes inhibition of the cancer cell growth.
Inform your doctor whether you have received any other cancer treatment. Herceptin 440 mg Injection may cause a decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction, cardiomyopathy, hypersensitivity reactions, pulmonary toxicity, and embryo-fetal toxicity during the treatment. Hence, inform your oncologist if you have any cardiovascular conditions, liver/kidney disease, lung problems, are pregnant, are planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding before receiving Herceptin 440 mg Injection.
Consult the doctor immediately, if you experience symptoms of an infection, such as a high temperature, chills, or feeling unwell despite a normal temperature. It could be due to a reduced white blood cell count caused by Herceptin 440 mg Injection, increasing your risk of severe infections. Additionally, swollen feet or ankles, stomach pain, or lower back pain may indicate heart problems.
It is recommended to wait at least 6 months after completing Herceptin 440 mg Injection therapy before trying to get pregnant. This is because the medication can remain in the body for some time and may potentially affect pregnancy. However, it is essential to consult the doctor for personalized advice and to ensure that it is safe for you to become pregnant after this treatment.
The duration of treatment with Herceptin 440 mg Injection will depend on an individual treatment plan, which your doctor will determine based on your specific condition. It may vary based on personal medical conditions and how you respond to the therapy. In some cases, the treatment duration may be shorter or longer. Always attend follow-up appointments as instructed by the doctor for effective treatment.
Fasting is not typically required before administering Herceptin 440 mg Injection. However, it is always best to follow the doctor's specific instructions regarding preparations before treatment. If fasting is necessary, your doctor will provide detailed guidance.
Herceptin 440 mg Injection should be administered through subcutaneous (SC) or intravenous (IV) routes by the doctor or nurse. Do not self-administer.
Herceptin 440 mg Injection should not be administered to patients with HER2-negative cancer cells as it is a monoclonal antibody that specifically targets a protein called human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), which is present in high amounts on the surface of specific cancer cells.
The doctor may recommend heart investigations while you are taking Herceptin 440 mg Injection as it may potentially affect heart function. It has been associated with heart-related side effects, including a decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction, which could lead to heart failure in some patients. Monitoring heart health helps detect any issues early, ensuring prompt action to manage the risk. Always follow the doctor's recommendations for regular check-ups during treatment.
During treatment with Herceptin 440 mg Injection for advanced-stage disease, cardiac monitoring was conducted every 3 to 8 months for up to 2 years. However, the doctor will adjust the frequency of heart investigations based on your specific condition and response to treatment. It's essential to follow their advice for optimal monitoring and early detection of any heart-related issues.
The side effects of Herceptin 440 mg Injection include abdominal pain, chills, headache, diarrhoea, fatigue, nausea, back pain, bone pain, oedema, insomnia, fever, dizziness, vomiting, cough, rash, and injection site reactions. Consult the doctor if any of these side effects persist or worsen.
