Why is Purinethol prescribed?
Purinethol is part of a group of medicines known as antimetabolites. Doctors used Purinethol to treat some kinds of cancer. Purinethol works by interfering with the growth of cancer cells, which are gradually destroyed. Since Purinethol may also affect the growth of normal body cells, other effects will also occur.
How do I use Purinethol?
Use Purinethol only as prescribed by your doctor. Never use more or less than the amount your doctor ordered. The exact amount of medicine you need has been carefully worked out. Taking too much may increase the chance of side effects, while taking too little may not improve your condition.
Doctors sometimes give Purinethol with certain other medicines. If you are using a combination of medicines, make sure that you take each one at the right time and do not mix them.
This medication is available only with your doctor's prescription, in the following dosage form: Oral and Tablets.
What are the potential side effects from Purinethol?
Because of the mechanism that cancer medicines work on the body, there is a possibility that they might cause other unwanted effects that may not occur until months or years after the medicine is used. These delayed effects may include certain types of cancer. Discuss these possible effects with your doctor.
