Effectiveness
How Cyclophosphamide Affects PatientsCyclophosphamide is a type of medication used to treat cancer. It works by adding chemicals called alkyl groups to DNA, which prevents the cells from dividing and stops them from growing. It also adds methyl or other alkyl groups to molecules that should not be there, which disrupts how DNA works and causes the cells to die. Alkylating agents are cell cycle-nonspecific, meaning they affect any cell at any stage of its life cycle.
How Cyclophosphamide works in the bodyAlkylating agents are drugs that prevent cancer cells from reproducing by damaging their DNA. They do this in three ways: by attaching alkyl molecules to the DNA, creating bonds between the atoms of the DNA, and causing the nucleotides to mispair. As a result of this damage, the DNA is unable to be copied, preventing further cancer cell growth.
When to interrupt dosage
The advised dosage of Cyclophosphamide is contingent upon the diagnosed condition, for example Lymphoma, Glomerulonephritis and Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute. The measure of dosage varies depending on the administration technique (e.g. Injection, powder, for solution - Intramuscular; Intraperitoneal; Intrapleural; Intravascular or Powder, for solution - Intravenous) featured in the table below.Condition

Cyclophosphamide Reviews: What are patients saying about Cyclophosphamide?
5Patient Review
9/13/2010 I've been on this medication for a short time, so it's hard to say if it's effective yet. I have noticed some hair loss and decreased appetite. When I do eat, I sometimes feel nauseous. It seems like my breathing is better, but the change has been very gradual.
4.7Patient Review
3/15/2011 This medicine has been incredibly effective, moreso than I could have hoped. My doctors decided to try something new on my 8th battle with cancer, and I'm so glad they did. As a college student, it's important to me that I can still go to school and work while taking this medication. The nausea has been tough to deal with but it's better than chemotherapy by far.

9/1/2012 I took this medication to get my Lupus under control, and it was successful. However, I experienced some troubling side effects afterwards that required me to take another medication. Thankfully, my liver returned to normal a few months later.
