Crizler Injection 2 mg/2 ml contains Vincristine Sulfate, a potent anticancer medication belonging to the vinca alkaloid class. It is widely used in oncology as part of combination chemotherapy regimens for treating different types of cancers, especially blood-related malignancies and certain solid tumors.

Vincristine works by interfering with cancer cell division, helping to slow or stop tumor growth. It is administered only under strict medical supervision in hospital settings.

Composition

Each 2 ml vial contains:

• Vincristine Sulfate 2 mg

It is intended for intravenous (IV) administration only and must never be given intrathecally (into the spinal fluid), as this can be fatal.

Mechanism of Action

Vincristine works by disrupting the process of cell division:

• Binds to tubulin, a protein required for microtubule formation
• Prevents formation of the mitotic spindle
• Stops cancer cells from dividing during metaphase
• Leads to cell death in rapidly growing cancer cells

This makes it effective in controlling fast-growing cancers.
