Bevacimab Injection 100 mg/4 ml (Bevacizumab) contains Bevacizumab, a targeted biological medicine used in the treatment of several types of cancer. It belongs to the class of drugs known as angiogenesis inhibitors, which work by blocking the formation of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow and spread.

This medication is widely used in oncology to manage cancers such as colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, ovarian cancer, and cervical cancer. It is typically administered alongside chemotherapy or other anticancer agents to improve treatment outcomes.

Composition

Each vial contains:

• Bevacizumab 100 mg in 4 ml sterile solution

This injection is intended for intravenous infusion only and must be administered by a qualified healthcare professional in a hospital or clinical setting.

• Slowing tumor growth and spread

By depriving tumors of oxygen and nutrients, it helps inhibit cancer progression.

• Colorectal Cancer
• Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
• Ovarian Cancer
• Cervical Cancer
• Renal cell carcinoma
• Glioblastoma (a type of brain tumor)

It is often used as part of combination therapy depending on the cancer type and stage.

Dosage and Administration

• Administered as an intravenous infusion under strict medical supervision
• Dosage is based on body weight, type of cancer, and treatment protocol
