Product Introduction
Bevaneal 400 Injection contains bevacizumab, a targeted bevaneal cancer medicine that helps prevent tumour growth by blocking the formation of new blood vessels that supply cancer cells. Among the key bevaneal 400 uses, it is prescribed along with other chemotherapy medicines for cancers such as metastatic breast cancer, brain cancer, cervical cancer, kidney cancer, lung cancer, and colorectal cancer. It is also used in cancers of the ovary, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Many patients ask about bevaneal 400mg cost, which may vary depending on hospital supply and location. The bevaneal cancer protocol and dose schedule are decided by the oncologist based on the cancer type, stage, and body weight. This medicine should be avoided for 28 days before and after surgery due to poor wound healing and bleeding risk. Common Bevaneal 400 injection side effects include high blood pressure, tiredness, protein in urine, and bleeding. Inform the doctor immediately if you develop vision changes or confusion.

How it works
Bevaneal 400 Injection is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody that works as a targeted therapy in the treatment of various advanced cancers. It produces its action by selectively binding to the protein called vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A), which is present in the lining of blood and lymph vessels in the body. It interrupts the interaction of VEGF-A with its receptors. This further inhibits the formation of blood vessels that supply oxygen and nutrients to the tumour. As a result, it slows down the rate of progression of cancer.
