Sutent 12.5mg Capsule 28s (Bottle)

Sutent 12.5mg Capsule is a targeted cancer medication belonging to the class of multikinase inhibitors, containing sunitinib malate as its active ingredient. It works by blocking specific signalling pathways involved in tumour growth and the formation of new blood vessels that supply cancer cells. If you're starting this medication, you're probably wondering how it fits into your treatment plan — it is an oral capsule generally taken once daily, with or without food, and your oncologist will prescribe a specific treatment cycle, often involving scheduled "weeks on, weeks off" periods rather than continuous daily use. Common side effects include fatigue, diarrhoea, nausea, mouth sores, and changes in skin or hair colour. Due to potential effects on the liver, heart, blood pressure, and blood cell counts, regular blood tests and heart function monitoring are essential throughout treatment under close supervision by your oncology team.

The dose of Sutent is highly individualised and depends on the type of cancer being treated, treatment response, and side effects experienced. Dose adjustments are usually made in 12.5mg increments by your oncologist to improve tolerability while maintaining effectiveness. The 12.5mg strength is commonly used as part of dose reduction or dose adjustment plans. Always follow your oncologist's specific dosing schedule.

Sutent 12.5mg Capsule generally has a shelf life of around 2–3 years from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the bottle or blister packaging before use.

• Sunitinib Malate – a multikinase inhibitor that blocks multiple receptor tyrosine kinases involved in tumour growth, cancer cell signalling, and angiogenesis.

• Known hypersensitivity to sunitinib or any other ingredient in the formulation
• Pregnancy, due to potential risk of harm to the developing baby; effective contraception is recommended during treatment and for at least 4 weeks after the final dose
• Breastfeeding, as sunitinib may pass into breast milk
• Caution advised in patients with a personal or family history of QT prolongation or abnormal heart rhythms
• Caution advised in patients with existing heart conditions, including heart failure or cardiomyopathy
• Caution advised in patients with active or recent serious infections

Sutent levels may be affected by medicines that alter CYP3A4 enzyme activity. Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors, such as ketoconazole, may increase sunitinib levels and raise the risk of side effects, while CYP3A4 inducers may reduce its effectiveness. Your oncologist may adjust treatment if these combinations cannot be avoided. Inform your oncology team about all prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, vitamins, and herbal supplements you are taking.
