What is Erbitux

Erbitux (cetuximab) is a cancer medicine that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body.

Erbitux is used to treat cancers of the colon and rectum. It is also used to treat head and neck cancer.

Erbitux is often used in combination with other cancer medicines or radiation treatment.

Warnings

Erbitux is often used in combination with other cancer medications and/or radiation treatments.

Before receiving Erbitux, tell your doctor if you have heart rhythm problems, congestive heart failure, breathing problems, coronary artery disease, or low levels of potassium or magnesium in your blood.

Side effects may occur when Erbitux is injected into your vein. Tell your caregiver right away if you feel dizzy, feverish, itchy, or short of breath during the infusion.

Cetuximab has caused life-threatening side effects in a small number of patients. Your caregivers will watch you closely after you receive each Erbitux dose.

Avoid exposure to sunlight or tanning beds while you are receiving this medicine and for at least 2 months after your treatment ends. Erbitux can make you sunburn more easily. Wear protective clothing and use sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) when you are outdoors.

Erbitux can have long lasting effects on your body. You may need frequent medical tests for a short time after you stop using this medicine.

Before taking this medicine

You should not use Erbitux if you are allergic to cetuximab or to mouse protein.

To make sure Erbitux is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have ever had:

• heart rhythm problems;

• lung disease or a breathing disorder;

• congestive heart failure;

• coronary artery disease (clogged arteries); or

• an electrolyte imbalance (such as low levels of potassium or magnesium in your blood).

Tell your doctor if you are allergic to red meat, or if you've ever been bitten by a tick. If so, you may be more likely to have certain reactions during or shortly after injection of this medicine.

Cetuximab may harm an unborn baby. Use effective birth control to prevent pregnancy while you are using Erbitux and for at least 2 months after your last dose. Tell your doctor if you become pregnant.

Do not breastfeed while using Erbitux, and for at least 2 months after your last dose.

How is Erbitux given?

Erbitux is given as an infusion into a vein. A healthcare provider will give you this injection.

Erbitux must be given slowly, and the infusion can take up to 2 hours to complete. You may be given other medications to help prevent serious side effects or allergic reaction.

Erbitux is often used in combination with other cancer medications and/or radiation treatments. You may receive another cancer medicine 1 hour after your Erbitux infusion.

Cetuximab has caused life-threatening side effects in a small number of patients. After each Erbitux infusion, your caregivers will watch you closely to make sure you do not have any serious side effects.

Erbitux is usually given until your body no longer responds to the medication. Follow your doctor's dosing instructions very carefully.

You may need frequent medical tests to be sure this medicine is not causing harmful effects. Your cancer treatments may be delayed based on the results.

Erbitux can have long-lasting effects on your body. You may need medical tests for at least 8 weeks after your last dose.
