FLT3 Inhibitor for AML Generic Medication

Gilteritinib is this inhibitor thing that’s used for treating acute myeloid leukemia, specifically in people who have FLT3 mutations. It’s for those who’ve already tried other treatments or whose cancer came back. It works by going after this FLT3 enzyme, the one that’s found on cancer cell surfaces.

This FLT3 thing is usually all turned on in cancer cells, and that makes them grow out of control. Each tablet of gilteritinib is 40 mg, and they’ve got this coating on them. You’re supposed to take gilteritinib 120 mg once a day.

You’ll find the drug comes in bottles with 90 tablets in them. This drug is for adults who didn’t get all better after previous treatments or for folks whose cancer came back. It’s really important to take the drug just like your doctor says.
