Hydrourea 500mg Hydroxyurea Antineoplastic Tablets - 1 Strip of 10 Tablets

Sickle cell disease causes red blood cells to deform into sickled shapes that block small blood vessels, leading to excruciating vaso-occlusive pain crises, organ damage, and frequent blood transfusions. Hydrourea 500mg provides a cornerstone disease-modifying therapy. It features an active Hydroxyurea antineoplastic formulation that actively manages severe clinical blood disorders. As a highly bioavailable compound, it effectively prevents dangerous systemic abnormal cellular proliferation and stimulates fetal hemoglobin (HbF) production to prevent red blood cells from sickling.

How to Use / Operate

Take orally as strictly prescribed by your hematologist. Standardized clinical dosing strictly ensures safe long term physiological stability. The dosage is calculated based on body weight. Capsules should be swallowed whole with water. Handle capsules with care; wash hands thoroughly after handling.
