What is Lenalidomide?

Lenalidomide, the active ingredient in Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma, is an immunomodulatory imide drug presented as an oral formulation for adult use. It is used to treat certain hematologic cancers, including multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndromes and mantle cell lymphoma, in patients for whom it is indicated.

GNH USA supplies Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, oncology centres, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

What is Lenalidomide used for?

Lenalidomide is employed in the management of hematologic malignancies where it modulates the immune environment and inhibits tumor growth.

- Multiple myeloma: improves progression‑free survival and overall response rates in adult patients. - Myelodysplastic syndromes: reduces transfusion dependence and delays transformation to acute leukemia. - Mantle cell lymphoma: enhances response when combined with standard chemotherapy in relapsed or refractory disease.

What are the side effects of Lenalidomide?

Lenalidomide may cause a range of adverse reactions, varying from mild to serious.

Common Side Effects: - Fatigue: persistent tiredness affecting daily activities. - Diarrhea: loose stools that may be mild to moderate. - Nausea: feeling of sickness often accompanied by loss of appetite. - Rash: skin redness or itching. - Constipation: difficulty passing stools. - Peripheral neuropathy: tingling or numbness in extremities.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Thromboembolic events: deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. - Severe neutropenia: markedly reduced neutrophil count increasing infection risk. - Hepatotoxicity: elevated liver enzymes or liver injury. - Secondary primary malignancies: emergence of new cancers. - Severe cutaneous reactions: Stevens‑Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis.

What precautions apply to Lenalidomide?

Before initiating lenalidomide therapy, several precautions and monitoring measures should be observed.

- Pregnancy risk: contraindicated in pregnancy due to teratogenicity; ensure effective contraception. - Thrombosis prophylaxis: assess need for anticoagulation in patients with additional risk factors. - Hematologic monitoring: perform regular CBC to detect neutropenia or anemia. - Renal function: adjust dosing or monitor closely in patients with impaired kidney function. - Hepatic function: evaluate liver enzymes before and during treatment. - Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25 °C in the original container, protect from moisture and light.

What does Lenalidomide interact with?

Lenalidomide can interact with other medicines, altering efficacy or safety.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampin): may reduce lenalidomide plasma levels. - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased risk of bleeding when combined with lenalidomide‑associated thrombocytopenia. - Immunosuppressants (e.g., cyclosporine): heightened risk of severe neutropenia.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - P-glycoprotein substrates (e.g., digoxin): potential increase in drug exposure. - CYP2C19 inhibitors (e.g., fluconazole): may modestly raise lenalidomide concentrations. - NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen): additive risk of renal impairment and gastrointestinal bleeding.

Frequently asked questions

What is Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma used for?+
Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma contains lenalidomide and is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndromes and mantle cell lymphoma. It is used as part of a therapeutic regimen to control disease progression and improve response rates.
How does lenalidomide work?+
Lenalidomide binds to cereblon, a component of the CRL4‑E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, leading to the targeted degradation of the transcription factors Ikaros and Aiolos. This action modifies cytokine production, enhances immune‑cell activity and suppresses angiogenesis, resulting in antitumor effects.
What is the usual dose of Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma?+
The specific dose of Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s condition, disease stage, renal function and other clinical factors. Healthcare professionals set the regimen according to approved labeling and individual patient needs.
Is Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma is classified as pregnancy category X because it is teratogenic and can cause fetal harm. It should not be used during pregnancy, and effective contraception is required for both male and female patients. Breastfeeding is not recommended while on therapy.

How does Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma compare with the main alternative drug or class?+
Lenalidomide belongs to the immunomodulatory imide drug (IMiD) class and is generally more potent and better tolerated than thalidomide, the earlier IMiD. Compared with pomalidomide, another newer IMiD, lenalidomide has a longer safety record but may require dose adjustments in renal impairment.
What are the storage and handling requirements for Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma?+

How is Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma administered?+
Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma is administered orally, usually as a tablet or capsule, with or without food according to the prescriber’s instructions. Patients should swallow the dose whole and follow any specific guidance regarding timing relative to meals.
What are the most serious risks to watch for while taking Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma?+
The most serious risks include thromboembolic events such as deep‑vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, severe neutropenia that can predispose to infection, and teratogenic effects that can cause birth defects. Patients should be monitored closely for signs of these complications.
Who should not use Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma?+
Lenalidomid Ohre Pharma should not be used by pregnant women or women who could become pregnant without effective contraception. It is also contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to lenalidomide or any component of the formulation, and caution is advised in severe renal or hepatic impairment.
