Overview

Celkeran (Chlorambucil) is an alkylating agent used in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), Hodgkin's lymphoma, and other cancers. It works by interfering with the DNA in cancer cells, preventing their ability to divide and grow. This oral medication is usually prescribed when other therapies are not effective or suitable for the patient. Chlorambucil is considered a relatively mild chemotherapy drug, effective for managing cancers and autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and nephrotic syndrome.

Key Benefits
  • Targeted cancer treatment: Effective for chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Hodgkin's lymphoma, and other cancers
  • Oral administration: Convenient oral tablet form compared to intravenous chemotherapy
  • Milder side effects: Relatively well-tolerated when compared to other chemotherapy treatments
  • Improves prognosis: Used to control the spread of cancer and improve quality of life in cancer patients
  • Used for autoimmune conditions: Effective in treating conditions like nephrotic syndrome and rheumatoid arthritis
How to Use
  • Dosage: The typical starting dose is 2 mg per day, which can be adjusted based on the patient's response and condition.
  • Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Do not crush or chew the tablet.
  • Consistency: It is important to take your dose consistently as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
  • Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next dose. Do not double the dose.
