Erlocip contains the active ingredient Erlotinib, categorized under the drug class epidermal growth receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

This protein is believed to be involved in the growth and spread of cancer cells. It should be used under the guidance of a doctor. Do not take it if you are hypersensitive to Erlotinib or any other ingredients of the medicine. For best results, use it under the guidance of a doctor. The anticancer drug has not been studied in patients with severe hepatic or renal insufficiency.
The usual dose to treat non-small cell lung cancer at an advanced stage is one 150 mg tablet each day. Swallow the capsule with a glass full of water. Make sure you follow all the instructions given by your doctor. Check with your doctor if you are not sure about the correct dosage.
