FAQs

Acabrunat 100 Capsule contains Acalabrutinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Tyrosine kinases are enzymes in the body that send signals to cells, directing them to grow and divide. Acalabrutinib blocks these signals to cancer cells. Cancer cells die when their signals are interrupted. This could help to delay the progression of the cancer.

While taking Acabrunat 100 Capsule , make sure you visit your doctor at all the appointments to ensure that treatment works. Regular monitoring of blood and lipid tests and weight checks are required. An effective way of contraception should be used by both men and women while taking the Acabrunat 100 Capsule .

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is diagnosed by taking a biopsy of tumour tissue and examining the cells under a microscope.

You can take the missed dose if you forget to take your acalabrutinib, which is less than 3 hours after your usual time. Then, take the next dose at the regular time. Do not take your missed dose if more than 3 hours have passed. Wait and take the next dose at the regular time. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missing one.
