Lenalidomide
Lenalidomide is a medication used primarily to treat certain types of blood cancers, such as multiple myeloma and some types of lymphoma. It works by helping the immune system fight cancer cells, reducing the growth of these cells, and slowing down the disease's progression. Lenalidomide is often given after other treatments have not been effective. It is taken as a pill and is usually part of a larger treatment plan that may include other medications or therapies. Patients using lenalidomide are monitored closely for side effects, as it can affect blood counts and increase the risk of infections.
