This drug may cause weakness and lethargy, if affected, do not drive or operate machinery.
Chỉ số theo dõi
Monitor renal function (e.g. serum creatinine) prior to treatment and after each course, CBC with differential during therapy and for ≥8 weeks following therapy; liver and pulmonary function tests frequently.
Quá liều
Symptoms: Increased adverse effects such as fever, nausea, vomiting, myelosuppression. Management: Supportive treatment.
Tương tác
Concomitant use with other chemotherapy agents (e.g. vinca alkaloids) may enhance adverse effects e.g. pulmonary toxicity, bone marrow suppression.
Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Mitomycin, a highly toxic antineoplastic antibiotic, selectively inhibits the synthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) by alkylating DNA to produce DNA cross-linking (primarily with guanine and cytosine pairs). It also suppresses cellular ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthesis at high concentrations. Although it is not a cell cycle-specific agent, it is most active in the late G1 and early S phases. Pharmacokinetics: Distribution: Widely distributed. Metabolism: Metabolised primarily in the liver. Excretion: Mainly via faeces; urine (approx 10%, as unchanged drug). Terminal half-life: Approx 50 minutes.
