How to buy Everolimus? How much does it cost?

Everolimus (Everolimus) is a targeted therapy drug that belongs to a class of immunosuppressants. Its mechanism of action is to inhibit the activity of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, thereby affecting cell growth, division and metabolism, thereby achieving the purpose of treating cancer and preventing rejection after organ transplantation.

After an organ transplant, the immune system may attack the transplanted organ, causing rejection. Everolimus is widely used in organ transplant patients to reduce the activity of the immune system, thereby reducing the risk of rejection and improving transplant success rates.

In addition, everolimus is used in the treatment of certain breast cancers and neuroendocrine tumors. In these cases, it is often used in combination with other medications (such as hormonal treatments) to increase the effectiveness of the treatment. For some patients with breast cancer, particularly those with hormone receptor-positive (ER+) and HER2-negative breast cancer, everolimus can prolong progression survival.

However, the use of everolimus may also be associated with some side effects, such as oral ulcers, rash, nausea, fatigue, etc. Therefore, when using everolimus, patients need to do it under the guidance of a doctor and undergo regular medical monitoring and examinations to ensure the safety and efficacy of the treatment.

Everolimus has been approved for marketing in my country, and has been included in the national medical insurance. The price is about 4000~5000 yuan. It takes about 2 boxes of everolimus per month.
