Fibnib 100mg Soft Gelatin Capsule

Product Overview
Fibnib 100mg Soft Gelatin Capsule is prescribed for managing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and non-small cell lung cancer. This medication works by targeting specific biological pathways involved in the progression of these conditions, helping to slow down or halt the growth and spread of cancer cells.

It is important to take Fibnib 100mg with food and try to consume it at the same time every day to maximize its effectiveness. Your healthcare provider will determine the appropriate dosage and schedule based on your condition, which may be adjusted over time. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully and do not alter the dose without medical advice, as incorrect use can lead to serious side effects. It may take several weeks or months before you notice improvement, so continue the treatment unless advised otherwise.

Common Side Effects
Diarrhea is frequently reported by patients taking this medication; staying well-hydrated is recommended, and you should contact your doctor if symptoms persist. Other side effects can include nausea, stomach pain, vomiting, changes in liver function tests, reduced appetite, headache, weight loss, and increased blood pressure. Your doctor may request regular blood tests to monitor your liver function during treatment.

Precautions
Before starting Fibnib, inform your doctor if you have any bleeding disorders, kidney or liver issues, or if you are taking medications for infections. Many drugs can interact with Fibnib, so disclose all current medications to your healthcare provider. This medication is not advised during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and effective contraception is recommended for both men and women while on treatment.

Indications

• Management of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

• Treatment of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Benefits
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis causes lung tissue to become thick and scarred, leading to symptoms such as breathlessness and a persistent dry cough. Fibnib helps by blocking pathways that cause cancer cell growth and tissue scarring, slowing disease progression. While the medication can cause side effects, these should be discussed with your doctor to ensure the best possible care.

How to Use
Take Fibnib exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the capsule whole with food and do not chew, crush, or break it.

Mechanism of Action
Fibnib is an anti-cancer agent that works by inhibiting abnormal proteins which promote cancer cell multiplication. It also interferes with pathways responsible for fibrosis, thereby reducing the thickening and scarring of tissue and helping to control disease spread.
