Uses of Bendamax Injection
Benefits of Bendamax Injection
In Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL)
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is a cancer of the white blood cells in our body, also called mantle-cell lymphoma. White blood cells are those cells that help us to fight infections. Bendamax 100 Injection helps to restrict cancer growth and also blocks the action of other chemicals that are required for cancer growth and further spread. Avoid being in crowds and wash your hands often to prevent any infections. Have plenty of fluids, unless otherwise advised by the doctor not to.
In Blood cancer
Blood cancer, also called leukemia, is a cancer of the blood-forming tissues that decreases the body's ability to fight infection. Bendamax 100 Injection kills or stops the growth of cancer cells and also prevents the multiplication of cancer cells. It is a potent and very toxic medicine and you should discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. You should avoid drinking alcohol while having this treatment and drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.
In Multiple myeloma
If you have multiple myeloma, your body is destroying bone faster than it is being replaced. This makes bones weak and painful and more likely to break. Bendamax 100 Injection may be prescribed along with other cancer treatments such as chemotherapy.
