IHydroxyurea

Intshayelelo: Yintoni iHydroxyurea?

I-Hydroxyurea liyeza elisetyenziswa kakhulu kunyango lweentlobo ezithile zomhlaza kunye neengxaki zegazi. Lihlelwa njengeyeza elilwa nomhlaza, oko kuthetha ukuba linceda ekuthinteleni ukukhula kweeseli zomhlaza. I-Hydroxyurea ikwaziwa nangokukwazi kwayo ukonyusa amanqanaba e-hemoglobin yosana olusandul’ ukuzalwa kwizigulana ezinesifo se-sickle cell, ngaloo ndlela inciphisa ukuphindaphindeka kweengxaki ezibuhlungu ezinxulumene nale meko.

Ukusetyenziswa kweHydroxyurea

I-Hydroxyurea ineendlela ezininzi ezivunyiweyo zonyango, kuquka:

• ILeukemia yeMyeloid eNgapheliyo (CML): Ihlala isetyenziswa njengonyango lokuqala lolu hlobo lomhlaza, oluchaphazela igazi kunye nomongo wamathambo.
• ISickle Cell Disease: I-Hydroxyurea isetyenziselwa ukunciphisa ukuphindaphindeka kweziganeko ezibuhlungu kunye nesidingo sotofelo-gazi.
• I-Polycythemia Vera: Le meko ibandakanya ukuveliswa kakhulu kweeseli ezibomvu zegazi, kwaye i-hydroxyurea inceda ekunciphiseni inani leeseli zegazi.
• I-Thrombocythemia ebalulekileyo: I-Hydroxyurea isetyenziselwa ukulawula inani eliphezulu leeplatelet kwesi sifo segazi.
• Umhlaza wesibeleko: Ingasetyenziswa kunye nezinye iindlela zonyango zeentlobo ezithile zomhlaza wesibeleko.

Ingaba isebenza kanjani

I-Hydroxyurea isebenza ngokuphazamisa inkqubo yokwenziwa kwe-DNA kwiiseli. Ithintela i-enzyme ebizwa ngokuba yi-ribonucleotide reductase, ebalulekileyo ekuveliseni i-deoxyribonucleotides, iibhloko zokwakha i-DNA. Ngokuthintela le enzyme, i-hydroxyurea icothisa ukukhula nokwahlukana kweeseli ezahlula ngokukhawuleza, ezifana neeseli zomhlaza kunye neeseli zegazi ezingaqhelekanga. Eli nyathelo linceda ukulawula ukwanda kwezi seli, okwenza ukuba zisebenze ekunyangeni iimeko ezahlukeneyo.

Isisombululo kunye noLawulo

Umlinganiselo we-hydroxyurea unokwahluka ngokuxhomekeke kwimeko enyangwayo, ubudala besigulana, kunye nempilo iyonke.

Yabantu Abadala:

Idosi eqhelekileyo yokuqala ye-chronic myeloid leukemia yi-15 mg/kg/ngosuku, enokulungiswa ngokusekelwe kumanani egazi kunye nempendulo kunyango. Kwisifo se-sickle cell, idosi eqhelekileyo yi-10-15 mg/kg/ngosuku.

Eyabantwana:

Idosi idla ngokubalwa ngokusekelwe kubunzima bomzimba, ngokubanzi iqala kwi-20 mg/kg/ngosuku kwisifo se-sickle cell.

Ulawulo:

I-Hydroxyurea ifumaneka ngohlobo lwekhaphu kwaye ithathwa ngomlomo, ngesiqhelo kube kanye ngemini. Kubalulekile ukuyithatha kunye nolwelo oluninzi ukunceda ukuthintela ukuphelelwa ngamanzi emzimbeni.
