Sorafenib 200 Mg Tablet | Benefits & Side-Effects

 


Benefits of Sorafenib

Snipers, not shotguns: Unlike traditional chemotherapy, which targets all cells, good and bad, Sorafenib acts like a pinpoint sniper. It specifically targets proteins required for cancer cell growth and survival, leaving healthy cells mostly unaffected. This means that patients may have fewer side effects and a better quality of life.

  • Boosts the immune system: It sends reinforcements to the body's defence system, encouraging it to detect and attack cancer cells more effectively.

  • Slows the march: It slows tumour growth, gives patients valuable time, and may even prolong their lives.

  • Chokes the tumour: Sorafenib inhibits angiogenesis, which is the formation of blood vessels around tumours.
