Padcev is a medication used for the treatment of advanced bladder cancer. It works by targeting and destroying cancer cells, and it is typically given in combination with another drug called pembrolizumab. However, it is important to note that Padcev may cause serious side effects, including severe skin reactions, high blood sugar, lung problems, nerve problems, and eye problems.
Before starting treatment with Padcev, it is crucial to inform your healthcare provider about any medical conditions you have, such as numbness or tingling in your hands or feet, a history of high blood sugar or diabetes, or liver problems. Additionally, if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, or if you are breastfeeding, it is important to discuss this with your healthcare provider as Padcev can harm an unborn baby or pass into breast milk. It is also essential to inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you are taking, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements, as certain combinations may cause side effects.
