So, Praseltinib is a drug that’s made to help with certain types of cancer, like lung cancer and thyroid cancer, where there’s a RET-fusion. It locks onto something called the RET kinase, which is this that has a hand in how cells grow and split. You can get the drug in a capsule.
It’s 100 milligrams. The doc usually says to take 400 mg of it every day. And you need to take it on an empty stomach.
A bottle has about two months’ worth of doses. It holds 60 capsules. The way it works is by keeping the RET from doing too much and that stops these pathways that could make tumors grow bigger.
Make sure you don’t break or chew them. You’ve just got to swallow the capsules whole. Stay with the dosing like the doc tells you.
And if you feel something’s not right, let your healthcare provider know.
