Lenvanix (Lenvatinib) is a medication used in the treatment of certain types of cancer. It belongs to a class of drugs known as kinase inhibitors. Lenvatinib works by blocking the action of certain proteins involved in the growth and spread of cancer cells.
Some common uses of Lenvatinib include the treatment of:

Thyroid cancer: Lenvatinib may be prescribed for the treatment of advanced thyroid cancer that has not responded to other treatments.
Renal cell carcinoma (Kidney cancer): Lenvatinib may be used in combination with another medication called everolimus to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (Liver cancer): Lenvatinib may also be used to treat liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body.

As with any medication, Lenvatinib can cause side effects, which may vary from person to person. Common side effects may include fatigue, high blood pressure, diarrhea, decreased appetite, nausea, and changes in liver function tests.
It?s important for patients to discuss potential side effects and any concerns with their healthcare provider before starting treatment with Lenvanix. Additionally, patients should follow their healthcare provider?s instructions carefully and report any unexpected or severe side effects promptly.
