It is normally used as an immunosuppressant to prevent rejection of organ transplants. In a similar fashion to other mTOR inhibitors Everolimus' effect is solely on the mTORC1 protein and not on the mTORC2 protein. RENAL CARCINOMA PRESCRIBING INFORMATION: • Rapact 5mg tablet are mainly indicated for the treatment of Renal carcinoma. Rapact 5mg tablet are mainly indicated for the treatment of Breast carcinoma.

This inhibition decreases the activity of effectors downstream, that may cause blockage of cell progression from G1 into S phase, subsequently causes cell growth arrest and apoptosis RAPACT 5MG PRODUCT DETAILS: • Brand : Rapact Ingredients : Everolimus Strength : 5mg Manufactured : Natco Pharma Ltd Package : 10 tablets PHARMACOKINETICS • ABSORPTION: • The high plasma concentration time of Everolimus is 1 to 2 hours.

DISTRIBUTION: • Rapact 5mg human plasma protein bound with the range of 74%. METABOLISM: • The metabolism of Everolimus is occurred in liver, which is a substrate of CYP3A4. EXCRETION: • The major route of elimination; 5% in urine; the parent compound has been detected in urine or feces.
