Afinator Everolimus 3mg Tablets: Uses, Side Effects, and Precautions
Afinator Everolimus 3mg Tablets treat certain cancers, including renal cell carcinoma, subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA), and neuroendocrine tumors. This medication also plays a role in preventing organ transplant rejection. Afinator works by inhibiting mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin), a protein involved in cell growth. By blocking mTOR, it helps slow the progression of cancer and abnormal tissue growth.
Afinator is used for advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma (a type of kidney cancer), SEGA in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), and neuroendocrine tumors that originate in the neuroendocrine system. In some cases, it also supports immunosuppressive therapy for organ transplant patients.
Common side effects may include:
- Mouth ulcers and sore throat
- Nausea and vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Fatigue
- Increased risk of infections due to immune suppression
- Rash
Serious side effects may include:
- Lung issues such as pneumonitis, causing persistent cough or breathing difficulty
- Liver problems, with symptoms like jaundice, dark urine, or abdominal pain
- Low blood cell counts, increasing the risk of infections and anemia
Afinator is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to potential harm to the fetus or infant. Patients with liver or kidney conditions may require dose adjustments and close monitoring. Since Afinator suppresses immune function, exposure to infections should be minimized. This medication may interact with drugs affecting liver enzymes, so it is important to inform a healthcare provider about any ongoing treatments.
