WHAT CAPECITABINE MEDAC IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Capecitabine medac belongs to the group of medicines called
"cytostatic medicines", which stop the
growth of cancer cells. Capecitabine medac contains capecitabine,
which itself is not a cytostatic
medicine. Only after being absorbed by the body is it changed into an
active anti-cancer medicine
(more in tumour tissue than in normal tissue).
Capecitabine medac is used in the treatment of colon, rectal, gastric,
or breast cancers.
Furthermore, Capecitabine medac is used to prevent new occurrence of
colon cancer after complete
removal of the tumour by surgery.
Capecitabine medac may be used either alone or in combination with
other medicines.
