Tabloid

Tabloid ( thye-oh-GWON-een) belongs to the group of medicines known as antimetabolites. It is used to treat some kinds of cancer. Tabloid interferes with the growth of cancer cells, which are eventually destroyed. Since the growth of normal body cells may also be affected by Tabloid, other effects will also occur. Some of these may be serious and must be reported to your doctor. Other effects may not be serious but may cause concern. Some effects may not occur for months or years after the medicine is used. Before you begin treatment with Tabloid, you and your doctor should talk about the good Tabloid will do as well as the risks of using it. Tabloid is available only with your doctor's prescription, in the following dosage form: Oral Tablets (U.S. and Canada)
