Alunbrig 90mg Tablet is an anticancer agent used to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), containing the active ingredient Brigatinib. It belongs to a class of drugs called tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that block abnormal proteins responsible for cancer cell growth.

Alunbrig 90mg Tablet prescribed for patients with ALK-positive (anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive) NSCLC who have shown disease progression or intolerance to previous ALK inhibitors. It helps prevent cancer cells from multiplying and spreading by targeting specific enzymes involved in tumor growth.

This drug is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to Alunbrig 90mg Tablet or its components. Stop using it and consult your doctor immediately if you experience allergic reactions such as rash, swelling, or breathing difficulty.

If you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or suspect pregnancy, consult your doctor before taking Alunbrig 90mg Tablet, as it may cause serious harm to the fetus. Similarly, consult your physician if you are breastfeeding or planning to breastfeed. Your doctor will assess your medical history and other medicines to ensure safe use. Alunbrig price varies by retailer and location.

Alunbrig 90mg Tablet is used for:

• Treatment of ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

• Managing disease progression in patients previously treated with other ALK inhibitors

• Reducing tumor growth and preventing metastasis

Brigatinib works by selectively inhibiting the activity of the ALK protein and other kinases involved in cancer cell proliferation. By blocking these enzymes, it helps prevent tumor cells from multiplying, spreading, and surviving, thereby slowing the progression of lung cancer.
