Description

Everolimus, known as Afinitor, is a versatile treatment option used for various medical conditions. It’s employed for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after other treatments have proven ineffective. Additionally, it tackles advanced breast cancer and certain types of pancreatic, stomach, intestinal, or lung cancers that can’t be surgically treated. For those with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), it addresses kidney tumors and subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA) brain tumors in both adults and children over one year of age. Everolimus, whether as Afinitor or Afinitor Disperz, acts as a kinase inhibitor, thwarting cancer cell growth and restricting blood supply to these cells. In the form of Zortress, it assists in preventing transplant rejection after kidney transplants by moderating immune system activity.

Additional information

Usage

Usage
-Everolimus comes in tablet form to be taken orally or suspended in water and then ingested. The dosing regimen varies based on the condition being treated. For conditions such as SEGA or certain cancers (RCC, breast, pancreatic, stomach, intestine, lung), it's typically taken once a day. If used to prevent transplant rejection, it's taken twice daily in tandem with cyclosporine. It's important to consistently take Everolimus with or without food, around the same time each day. Follow your prescription label carefully and seek clarification from your doctor or pharmacist for any uncertainties.
Tablets should be swallowed whole with a full glass of water—no splitting, chewing, or crushing. If using tablets for oral suspension (Afinitor Disperz), mix them with water before use. Do not mix with juice or any liquid other than water. Prepare the mixture within 60 minutes of use and avoid preparing it on surfaces used for food. If preparing for someone else, use gloves to prevent contact. Pregnant individuals should avoid handling Everolimus. Mixing in an oral syringe or glass involves placing the prescribed number of tablets, adding water, and waiting. For the syringe method, gently agitate the syringe and administer. For the glass method, stir and have the patient drink the mixture immediately. Dosing may change based on various factors, and your doctor will adjust it accordingly. Always communicate any side effects or changes in your condition to your healthcare provider during your Everolimus treatment.
