View company portfolio →What Pataxel (Paclitaxel) is used for
Paclitaxel is an anti-cancer (chemotherapy) medicine from the taxane group. It slows or stops the growth of cancer cells. It is given into a vein as a drip, in a hospital or clinic, by doctors and nurses. A specialist cancer doctor who is experienced in chemotherapy decides when it is used, and your cancer team plans your treatment and checks your blood tests.
- Ovarian cancer, for example after surgery (together with cisplatin) or if platinum medicines have not worked
- Breast cancer, including advanced or spreading breast cancer, and after surgery and other chemotherapy
- Advanced non-small-cell lung cancer, together with cisplatin, when surgery or radiotherapy is not suitable
- Kaposi's sarcoma in people with AIDS, when other treatments have not worked
- WHO's essential medicines list also names it for cancers of the nose and throat area (nasopharynx) and of the neck of the womb (cervix), as well as breast, ovary, lung and Kaposi sarcoma

- Get urgent help for a fever, severe chills, a sore throat, a cough or mouth ulcers. These can be signs of infection when your white blood cells are low.
