Zimitib Cap (Imatinib 100 mg) – Product Description Zimitib Cap contains Imatinib 100 mg, a targeted anticancer medicine belonging to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) class. It is primarily prescribed for the treatment of specific blood cancers and certain solid tumors by blocking abnormal proteins that promote the growth and multiplication of cancer cells. This targeted mechanism helps slow disease progression while preserving healthy cells more effectively than traditional chemotherapy. Active Ingredient Imatinib Mesylate 100 mg Dosage Form Oral Capsule Therapeutic Indications Zimitib Cap is prescribed for the treatment of: Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Ph+ ALL) Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Disorders (MDS/MPD) Hypereosinophilic Syndrome (HES) Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans (DFSP), as recommended by an oncologist. How It Works Imatinib inhibits specific tyrosine kinase enzymes, including the BCR-ABL protein, which is responsible for uncontrolled cancer cell growth. By blocking these enzymes, it slows or stops the proliferation of cancer cells and helps manage the disease.
