Calquence 100 mg Capsule 6's

Calquence 100 mg Capsule is used to treat Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It contains Acalabrutinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Tyrosine kinases are enzymes in the body that transmit signals to cells, telling them to grow and divide. Acalabrutinib inhibits these signals to cancer cells. Cells die when their signals are disrupted. This could help to slow the progression of the cancer.
