The medicine comes in 200 mg tablets covered with a film coating. For adults, the suggested amount to take is 800 mg, and they have to take it two times a day. You can get this stuff in bottles that hold 240 tablets.
Tazemetostat affects the regulation of genes through epigenetic mechanisms, And by doing that, it can change the way cells grow and divide, which might even stop tumors from growing.

There can be some side effects when taking this stuff, so healthcare providers gotta keep a close eye on patients for any changes.
This medication has to be taken with a healthcare person keeping a lookout, and it’s not for everyone, either. You might need to change the dose depending on how a patient handles the drug and what their body’s like.
