Lenalid 10mg Capsule

​​Lenalid 10mg Capsule, a thalidomide analogue, is an immunomodulatory agent possessing immunomodulatory and antiangiogenic properties. Lenalidomide works to inhibit the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and increases the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines from peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Lenalid 10mg inhibits cell proliferation with varying effectiveness (IC50s) in some but not all cell lines. Lenalid 10mg Capsule is effective in inhibiting the growth of Namalwa cells (a human B cell lymphoma cell line with a deletion of one chromosome 5) but is much less effective in inhibiting the growth of KG-1 cells (human myeloblastic cell line, also with a deletion of one chromosome 5) and other cell lines without chromosome 5 deletions. It does not prolong the QTc interval.  ​​

Most side effects of Lenalid 10mg Capsule not require medical attention as they may disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. In case these side effects become worse, consult your doctor immediately.
