Olaparib 150mg Tablet for BRCA-Mutated Ovarian, Breast & Pancreatic Cancer

Lynparza 150mg Tablet contains Olaparib, a PARP (poly ADP-ribose polymerase) inhibitor used in the treatment of BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer and HER2-negative breast cancer, and in certain pancreatic and prostate cancers. It works by blocking the PARP enzyme that cancer cells rely on to repair damaged DNA, causing cancer cells carrying a BRCA mutation to die while sparing most healthy cells. Manufactured by AstraZeneca, this is a prescription-only oncology medicine to be used strictly under an oncologist’s supervision.
