Melphalan

This medication should be taken on an empty stomach at consistent times each day. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage and frequency based on your specific condition, which may be adjusted periodically. Strict adherence to your doctor’s instructions is crucial, as improper use or overdose can lead to severe side effects. While benefits may take weeks or months to become apparent, continue treatment unless directed otherwise. Note that this medication increases sun sensitivity, so protective clothing and sunscreen are recommended.

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, and anemia. The drug may lower blood cell counts, increasing infection risk. Regular blood tests will monitor your cell counts and assess kidney, liver, and heart function during treatment. Notify your doctor immediately if you experience infection symptoms (fever, chills, body aches), unusual bruising/bleeding, or blood in urine/stool.

Inform your doctor about any bleeding disorders, liver/kidney problems, or concurrent infection medications before starting treatment. Many drugs can interact with Alphalanmg, so disclose all medications you’re taking. This medication is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Both male and female patients should use effective contraception during treatment to prevent pregnancy.
