This restricts the advancement of cancer to other unaffected regions. You need to follow your doctor’s instructions very carefully to recover.

In Treatment of Mantle-cell lymphoma

Mantle-cell lymphoma is a cancer of the white blood cells in our body, also called non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. White blood cells are those cells that help us to fight infections. Genxtor Injection helps to restrict cancer growth and also blocks the action of other chemicals that are required for cancer growth and further spread. Avoid being in crowds and wash your hands often to prevent any infections. Have plenty of fluids, unless otherwise advised by the doctor not to.
