Usage

Metoject belongs to a group of medicines known as antimetabolites. It is used in high doses to treat certain types of cancers, including breast cancer, Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and leukemia. At lower doses, it may also be used to treat severe psoriasis and severe rheumatoid arthritis. Metoject works by blocking an enzyme needed by body cells to live. This interferes with the growth of some cells, such as skin cells in psoriasis that are growing rapidly. In rheumatoid arthritis, Metoject acts on the inflammatory cells that cause joint swelling. Metoject therapy is used to control psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis but it will not cure them. In cancer, Metoject works by blocking an enzyme process in cancer cells so that they cannot grow. Some normal cells in the body may be affected as well. Take Metoject only as directed by your doctor. Metoject should never be taken every day of the week. Taking even small doses of Metoject daily for less than a week can result in serious consequences, including death. Each time you refill your prescription, check to see whether the dose you need to take has changed. Metoject commonly causes nausea and vomiting. Even if you begin to feel ill, do not stop using this medicine without first checking with your doctor. While you are using Metoject, drink extra fluids so that you will pass more urine. This will help the drug to pass from the body, and will prevent kidney problems and keep your kidneys working well.

The common side effects may include upset stomach, stomach pain, vomiting, nausea, loss of appetite, dizziness, chills and fever, diarrhea or sores on lips or mouth, a fall in the number of white blood cells, reduced resistance to infection, increased chances of cold sores, blood poisoning or swelling of blood vessels, tiredness.
