Product introduction

Kryxana 200mg Tablet may be taken with or without food and usually taken in combination with another medicine. The duration of treatment varies on the basis of your need and response to treatment. Take it in the exact dose and duration prescribed by your doctor. You may be asked for regular blood tests while taking this medication.

Common side effects of this medicine include decreased white blood cell count, nausea, fatigue, diarrhea, hair loss, vomiting, constipation, headache, and back pain. Neutropenia is a well-recognized adverse effect, in which the number of your white blood cells get reduced and your immune system gets weakened. As a result, you may be at greater risk of getting an infection. However, this side effect disappears rapidly once you stop taking the medicine.

Before using this medicine, let your doctor know if you have any preexisting medical conditions. Let your doctor also know about all the medications you are taking. Additionally, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
