Vincristine Sulfate Injection

Active Ingredients: Vincristine Sulfate

Vincristine Sulfate is an antileukemic drug used in cancer chemotherapy, typically used to treat acute lymphocytic leukemia. This drug is also for Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, rhabdomyosarcoma, neuroblastoma, breast cancer, small cell lung cancer, uterine cervix cancer, colorectal cancer, and Wilms' tumor.

Vincristine Sulfate Injection is a vinca alkaloid salt derived from a common flowering herb, the periwinkle plant. The active ingredient, Vincristine, is a mitotic inhibitor, which slows and stops cells from growth and division, which may kill the cancer cells. Originally Vincristine was known by the name leurocristine, and it has also been referred to as "LCR" and "VCR."
