Verified Ingredients and Effects

Composition:

MESNA-200MG

Uses:

Ifosfamide-induced hemorrhagic cystitis. 

Medicinal Benefits:

Uromixtexan 200 mg Injection belongs to a class of medication known as 'chemoprotectant' primarily used to prevent bleeding into the urine by a particular anticancer medicine known as ifosfamide (ifosfamide-induced hemorrhagic cystitis). It also reduces the risk of inflammation and bleeding in the bladder by receiving anti-cancer medication. It contains Mesna, which works by reacting chemically with the urotoxic ifosfamide (anti-cancer medicines) metabolites, resulting in their detoxification. In addition, it binds to other urotoxic metabolites and inhibits their effects on the bladder.

FAQs

Our body breaks down anticancer agents like ifosfamide or cyclophosphamide to form a chemical known as acrolein, which can harm and irritate the bladder. Uromixtexan 200 mg Injection works by making this natural chemical less harmful or toxic. However, Uromixtexan 200 mg Injection does not change ifosfamide's anti-cancer effects.

No, Uromixtexan 200 mg Injection should not be taken with an anti-coagulant like warfarin, heparin or coumarin as it might increase the risk of bleeding and lead to serious complications.

Please inform your doctor if you observe any change in the urine colour (like if you have red/pink-coloured urine).

In addition to bladder bleeding in hemorrhagic cystitis, an individual might also experience bladder wall scarring, decreased bladder size (atrophy), severe systemic infection (urosepsis), and urinary obstruction.
