Osimertinib is a drug that blocks the EGFR T790M protein, used to treat lung cancer, especially in people who have certain EGFR mutations. It comes in two types, a 40 mg and an 80 mg tablet that’s covered with a special coating. You’re supposed to take 80 mg of it every day, and it’s okay if you eat before or after you take it.
Each bottle has 30 pills, making it easy to manage a month’s worth of treatment. It zeroes in on those EGFR mutations and is super important for treating lung cancer. It can help patients live better and longer.
It’s a targeted treatment that tries to keep the bad stuff from chemo down by just hitting the cancer cells with the EGFR problem.
