Carfizome 60mg Injection is an anticancer medication containing the active constituent Carfilzomib. It is used to treat a type of cancer called multiple myeloma. Multiple myeloma is a cancer of a white blood cell called the plasma cell. These cells grow uncontrolled and accumulate in the bone marrow, damaging the bones and kidneys. The treatment with this medication reduces symptoms of multiple myelomas, such as bone pain, fatigue, and anemia, improving a patient's quality of life.

Combined with other medications, this medication can significantly increase survival rates in patients with multiple myeloma. It is often used in combination with other medications. Like all medications, it can have side effects. Common side effects include fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, and low blood cell counts. Patients need to stay hydrated while taking Carfizome 60mg Injection, as this medication causes dehydration, and dehydration can exacerbate some of the side effects of the medication. It effectively treats multiple myeloma, and the benefits may outweigh the risks for many patients.
