FAQs:

What is Fludamax 50mg Injection used to treat?

Fludamax 50mg Injection is a chemotherapy medicine used to treat certain types of blood cancers, primarily B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). It may also be used for other blood cancers such as non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and acute myeloid leukemia.

How often will I need to get Fludamax 50mg Injection?

A typical treatment schedule with Fludamax 50mg Injection involves receiving the medicine once a day for five consecutive days. This five-day treatment cycle is usually repeated every 28 days. Your doctor will determine the exact number of cycles you need.

My doctor said Fludamax 50mg Injection is for “refractory” CLL. What does that mean?

If your doctor prescribed Fludamax 50mg Injection for refractory CLL, this means that your chronic lymphocytic leukemia has either not responded to previous standard treatments or it has come back after you have been treated with at least one other type of chemotherapy, such as an alkylating agent.

Will I need to have a lot of blood tests during my Fludamax 50mg Injection treatment?

Affirmative. You will need to have frequent blood tests. Fludamax 50mg Injection can significantly affect your bone marrow, which can lead to low levels of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Your doctor will monitor your blood counts closely to manage these effects.

Why is my doctor so concerned about infections while I am on Fludamax 50mg Injection?

Fludamax 50mg Injection works by targeting and destroying cancer cells, but it also strongly suppresses your immune system, which can last for a long time. This makes you much more vulnerable to serious infections, so it is very important to take precautions and report any signs of infection to your doctor right away.

I need a blood transfusion during Fludamax 50mg Injection treatment. Is there anything special I need to know?

Affirmative. This is very important. If you need a blood transfusion while you are being treated with Fludamax 50mg Injection, the blood products you receive must be irradiated (treated with radiation) first. This is to prevent a rare, but very serious complication called transfusion-associated graft-versus-host disease.
