Detailed Information

Introduction

Dastila 50mg Tablet contains dasatinib, a targeted cancer therapy medication used to treat blood cancers in children above one year of age and adults. It is prescribed for newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in the chronic phase and Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in patients who have not responded to other treatments.

Chronic myeloid leukemia is a blood cancer where the body produces too many white blood cells due to a change in the Philadelphia chromosome. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the most common blood cancer affecting children, in which lymphocytes multiply too quickly and survive longer than normal. Dastila 50mg works by blocking abnormal proteins that signal cancer cells to grow, helping to slow or stop the spread of cancer.

This medication requires careful monitoring during treatment. Common side effects include diarrhea, headache, cough, rash, nausea, tiredness, vomiting, muscle pain, weakness, reduced appetite, and changes in blood pressure. Always inform your doctor about any side effects you experience.
