Frequently asked questions

What conditions is Lenalidomide Thorton & Ross Ltd. used for?+

In these settings it helps control disease progression, improve blood counts, and reduce the need for transfusions, as determined by a qualified healthcare professional.
How does lenalidomide work in the body?+

This action suppresses tumor cell growth, inhibits new blood‑vessel formation, and enhances immune‑mediated killing of malignant cells, providing antineoplastic effects.
What is the usual dose of lenalidomide?+
The prescribed dose of lenalidomide is individualized by the treating physician based on the specific indication, patient characteristics, renal function, and concomitant therapies. Only a qualified healthcare provider can determine the appropriate regimen for each patient.
