Contraindication
Previous severe hypersensitivity reaction to docetaxel, the solvent or polysorbate 80. Severe neutropenia; pregnancy, severe liver impairment.
Mode of Action
Docetaxel disrupts the microtubular network in cells that is essential for vital mitotic and interphase cellular functions. It binds to the free tubulin and promotes the assembly of tubulin into stable microtubules while simultaneously inhibiting their disassembly, resulting in inhibition of mitosis.
Precaution
Lactation. Hepatic impairment. Monitor liver blood function and blood counts regularly. Premedication with oral dexamethsaone at 16 mg daily for 3 days, starting one day before docetaxel treatment is recommended.
Lactation: Not known if excreted in breast milk, do not nurse
