The Glivec 400mg tablet is an anticancer medicine that acts as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Its mechanism of action involves selective inhibition of the protein kinase enzyme known as BCR-ABL, which promotes aberrant growth of cancerous cells. The inhibition of the enzyme ensures the prevention of the multiplication of tumor cells, as well as the induction of apoptosis in cells with the positive BCR-ABL enzyme. Apart from the BCR-ABL enzyme, the drug inhibits other enzymes such as c-KIT and PDGFR.

​It is advisable to avoid missing any doses. In case you miss a dose of Glivec tablets, consult your doctor immediately.​
