Detailed Information

Introduction

Apricyt 125mg/80mg Capsule contains aprepitant, a medication that belongs to a class of drugs called NK1 receptor antagonists. It is used together with other anti-nausea medicines to prevent chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in adults and children aged 12 years and older undergoing cancer treatment.

Before taking this capsule, inform your doctor about all medications you are currently taking, including over-the-counter drugs, supplements, and herbal products. It is essential to discuss any existing health conditions, particularly liver disorders, as your doctor may need to monitor your liver function during treatment. Do not use this medicine if you are allergic to aprepitant or any other ingredients in the capsule.

This medication may reduce the effectiveness of hormonal contraceptives. If you are of childbearing age, discuss alternative birth control methods with your doctor. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and sugar intolerance are important considerations—notify your healthcare provider about these before starting treatment.
