Prevention of cisplatin-induced neurotoxicity
Patients receiving cisplatin or similar chemotherapeutic agents may develop neurological disorders during treatment. This medication helps to prevent such neurological disorders. In other words, it is used to reduce nerve damage caused by chemotherapy, alleviating discomfort during treatment and improving quality of life.
For severe cases, administer 600-1200 mg daily via intramuscular injection or intravenous infusion. For treatment over several days or in mild cases, administer 300-600 mg daily via intramuscular injection or intravenous infusion.
This drug may rarely cause serious allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, so the patient's condition should be carefully monitored during administration. If the patient's face becomes pale, blood pressure drops, or there are unusual changes in pulse, administration should be stopped immediately. Additionally, rarely, there may be hypersensitivity symptoms such as skin rashes, and administration should cease if such symptoms occur. Gastrointestinal issues such as decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, or abdominal pain may rarely occur. This medication should be used immediately after preparation, and it is advisable not to use it after a prolonged period following dissolution. When administering an intramuscular injection, care should be taken to avoid nerves and blood vessels, and if repeated injections are necessary, it is safer to alternate injection sites. Extra caution is especially required when administering to children or minors. This medication should be stored in a safe place out of reach of children. Furthermore, if the medication is transferred from its original container to another one, there is a risk of misuse or deterioration of the drug's quality, so it must be kept in its original container with the lid tightly closed.
