Product Description

Pemetrexed injection is used in combination with other chemotherapy medications as a first treatment for a certain type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to nearby tissues or to other parts of the body. Pemetrexed injection is also used alone to treat NSCLC as ongoing treatment in people who have already received certain chemotherapy medications and whose cancer has not worsened and in people who could not be treated successfully with other chemotherapy medications. Pemetrexed injection is also in combination with another chemotherapy medication as a first treatment for malignant pleural mesothelioma (a type of cancer that affects the inside lining of the chest cavity) in people who cannot be treated with surgery. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by blocking the action of a certain substance in the body that may help cancer cells multiply.

What is Pemetrexed Injection 500 mg used for?

Pemetrexed Injection 500 mg is prescribed to adult patients for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer and malignant pleural mesothelioma. This antineoplastic agent acts as a cytostatic chemotherapy drug, impeding cancer cell proliferation. It is administered under strict medical supervision and forms part of a comprehensive cancer care regimen.


How is Pemetrexed Injection prepared and administered?

Before administration, the lyophilized powder must be reconstituted with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Following reconstitution, further dilution may be needed based on the total dosage required. The solution is then delivered via intravenous infusion only. Proper preparation and administration should be carried out by healthcare professionals in a clinical setting.


What are the storage and handling requirements?

Pemetrexed Injection should be stored at temperatures below 25C and kept protected from light. The shelf life typically spans 24 to 36 months as indicated on the package label. Always ensure the vial is intact, and barcode or batch information is checked before use to guarantee product integrity and traceability.
