Zicarb Dacarbazine 200mg Injection: Uses, Side Effects, and Precautions
Zicarb Dacarbazine 200mg Injection helps treat various types of cancer. This chemotherapy drug belongs to the alkylating agents class, which damages cancer cell DNA, preventing cell division and growth. As a result, it slows or stops cancer progression.
Zicarb is commonly prescribed for metastatic melanoma, an advanced form of skin cancer. It is also used in combination therapy for Hodgkin’s lymphoma and helps manage soft tissue sarcomas. Oncologists may recommend it for other cancer types based on the patient’s condition.
Common side effects include:
nausea,
vomiting,
fatigue,
loss of appetite,
hair loss,
low blood cell counts (raising infection, anemia, and bleeding risks),
skin rash, and liver issues such as yellowing of the skin or dark urine.
Serious side effects may include:
severe allergic reactions (rash, facial swelling, breathing difficulty),
heart problems (chest pain, irregular heartbeat),
severe infections due to low white blood cells, and liver toxicity,
which may require liver function tests. Immediate medical attention is necessary for serious side effects.
Zicarb is not suitable during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
People with existing blood disorders should inform their doctor.
Those with liver or kidney conditions require careful monitoring.
