Product Information
What is Camptosar?
Camptosar is the trade name of a prescription drug containing irinotecan as the active component. It is indicated for first-line treatment in combination with other cancer drugs in chemotherapy to treat certain cancers and may be used at the discretion of the doctor for other beneficial purposes. It is manufactured by Pfizer Pharmaceuticals and is available as a single dose injectable in pack sizes of 2ml and 5ml.
Active ingredient
Irinotecan is derived from camptothecin, a chemical in the body that interacts with certain enzymes in the body to cause single DNA strand breakage and prevents the binding of these strands. As a result of these changes, the infected cells are unable to repair themselves; hence, interfering with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body.
Conditions treated
Cancer (metastatic carcinoma) of the colon in combination with other drugs such as 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin.
Dosage information
Use your medication as directed by your healthcare professional. If you are not sure of how to, please check with your doctor. It is recommended to take your daily dose at about the same time every day.
The recommended IV dose is 125mg/m2 to be administered as a single infusion over 90 minutes, once every week for 4 weeks followed by a resting period of 2 weeks. Alternatively, a dose of 350mg/m2 can be administered once every 3 weeks.
