Lenalidomide’s mainly used to treat conditions like multiple myeloma and myelodysplastic syndromes, and it’s an immunomodulator. It works by helping to manage how your immune and cancer cells grow. The stuff comes in capsules that go from 2.5 mg all the way up to 25 mg.
You’re supposed to take 25 mg a day, and you do that every day for 21 days in a row, all part of a 28-day cycle. Each day’s worth is packed in a capsule, so one bottle will last you 21 days with the dose you need. Lenalidomide does its thing by changing how your immune system reacts and by stopping cancer cells from multiplying.
That’s why it’s so important for treating these diseases.
