So, Ceritinib is a cancer fighter, sort of a super-drug if you will, in the category of ALK inhibitors. It’s made especially for folks with that tricky kind of lung cancer called ALK-positive metastatic NSCLC. And it locks onto something called the ALK signaling pathway, kind of like a key to unlocking cancer growth.
Which is a big player in how cancer grows and spreads. Ceritinib comes in capsules, pretty much like the stuff you take for a headache. Each capsule packs a 150 mg punch.
The advice is to take 450 mg a day, just one shot. And eating something while you pop these is a good idea. These come in bottles filled with 70 of those capsules.
