Azalive 100mg Injection

Azalive 100mg Injection contains Azacitidine, a chemotherapy medication classified as a nucleoside metabolic inhibitor. It is used in adults for the treatment of Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML), particularly in patients who are not suitable candidates for stem cell transplantation. In MDS, the bone marrow produces faulty blood cells, whereas in AML, the bone marrow releases immature, non-functional white blood cells into the bloodstream. This medicine works by controlling abnormal cell growth in the bone marrow and improving blood cell production.
