Bleotex 15 mg Injection (Bleomycin) — Platinum‑Containing Cytotoxic Chemotherapy for Cancer
Bleotex 15 mg Injection contains bleomycin sulfate, a cytotoxic antitumor antibiotic widely used in the treatment of several types of cancer — including Hodgkin’s lymphoma, non‑Hodgkin’s lymphoma, testicular cancer, and squamous cell carcinomas — and as a therapeutic option for malignant pleural effusions under medical supervision. It works by damaging DNA in cancer cells, preventing them from replicating and leading to cell death. This medicine is administered as an intravenous infusion (or occasionally IM/SC) by trained oncology professionals in hospital settings, requiring careful monitoring for side effects such as lung toxicity, low blood counts, and allergic reactions. Due to the potential for serious adverse effects and risks in pregnancy, Bleotex 15 mg Injection should be used strictly under a doctor’s prescription and follow‑up care in licensed oncology facilities in Pakistan.
