Product Description

🔹 Product Overview
Lenvatol 10 mg Capsule contains Lenvatinib 10 mg, an oral targeted anticancer medicine belonging to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) class. It is used in the treatment of certain advanced or metastatic cancers, including differentiated thyroid cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer), renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer), and selected endometrial cancers.

Lenvatinib works by blocking specific receptor tyrosine kinases involved in tumor growth and the formation of new blood vessels that supply tumors. It is a prescription medicine and should be used under specialist oncology supervision.
