Contact SupplierDescription:
Docetaxel Injection Concentrate is a sterile, non-pyrogenic, pale yellow to brownish-yellow solution at 120mg/3.0ml concentration.
Usage & Treatment:
Docetaxel is a drug that is used primarily for treating breast cancer. Docetaxel works by attacking cancer cells. Every cell in the body contains a supporting structure (almost like a skeleton) called the microtubular network. If this "skeleton" is changed or damaged, the cell can't grow or reproduce. Docetaxel makes the "skeleton" in cancer cells unnaturally stiff, so that these cells can no longer grow.
Route of Administration:
Docetaxel is given through a vein (intravenously, IV)
There is no pill form of docetaxel
Premedication with a corticosteroid pill starting a day prior to docetaxel infusion for 3 days is given to reduce the severity of fluid retention and allergic reactions.
