Descriptions
Inotuzumab ozogamicin injection is used to treat acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that has come back or after other medicines did not work well. Leukemia is a type of cancer where the body makes abnormal white blood cells.
Inotuzumab ozogamicin is an antineoplastic (cancer) medicine. It interferes with the growth of cancer cells, which are eventually destroyed by the body. Since the growth of normal cells may also be affected by inotuzumab ozogamicin, other side effects can occur. Before you begin treatment, talk to your doctor about the benefits of this medicine as well as the possible risks of using it.
This medicine is to be given only by or under the direct supervision of your doctor.
