              <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p>What Cancidas is Cancidas contains a medicine called caspofungin. This belongs to a group of medicines called anti-fungals. What Cancidas is used for Cancidas is used to treat the following infections in children, adolescents and adults:</p><ul><li>serious fungal infections in your tissues or organs (called invasive candidiasis ). This infection is caused by fungal (yeast) cells called Candida. People who might get this type of infection include those who have just had an operation or those whose immune systems are weak. Fever and chills that do not respond to an antibiotic are the most common signs of this type of infection.</li><li>fungal infections in your nose, nasal sinuses or lungs (called invasive aspergillosis ) if other anti-fungal treatments have not worked or have caused side effects. This infection is caused by a mould called Aspergillus. People who might get this type of infection include those having chemotherapy, those who have had a transplant and those whose immune systems are weak.</li><li>suspected fungal infections if you have a fever and a low white cell count that have not improved on treatment with an antibiotic. People who are at risk of getting a fungal infection include those who have just had an operation or those whose immune systems are weak. How Cancidas works Cancidas makes fungal cells fragile and stops the fungus from growing properly. This stops the infection from spreading and gives the body s natural defences a chance to completely get rid of the infection.</li></ul></div>

The following information is intended for medical or healthcare professionals only: Instructions of how to reconstitute and dilute CANCIDAS: Reconstitution of CANCIDAS DO NOT USE ANY DILUENTS CONTAINING GLUCOSE as CANCIDAS is not stable in diluents containing glucose. DO NOT MIX OR CO-INFUSE CANCIDAS WITH ANY OTHER MEDICINES, as there are no data available on the compatibility of CANCIDAS with other intravenous substances, additives, or medicinal products. Visually inspect the infusion solution for particulate matter or discolouration. CANCIDAS 50 mg powder for concentrate for solution for infusion INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE IN ADULT PATIENTS (50 mg vial) Step 1 Reconstitution of conventional vials To reconstitute the powder bring the vial to room temperature and aseptically add 10.5 ml of water for injection. The concentrations of the reconstituted vials will be 5.2 mg/ml. The white to off-white compact lyophilised powder will dissolve completely. Mix gently until a clear solution is obtained. Reconstituted solutions should be visually inspected for particulate matter or discolouration. This reconstituted solution may be stored for up to 24 hours at or below 25 C. Step 2 Addition of reconstituted CANCIDAS to patient infusion solution Diluents for the final solution for infusion are: sodium chloride solution for injection, or lactated Ringer s solution. The solution for infusion is prepared by aseptically adding the appropriate amount of reconstituted concentrate (as shown in the table below) to a 250 ml infusion bag or bottle. Reduced volume infusions in 100 ml may be used, when medically necessary, for 50 mg or 35 mg daily doses. Do not use if the solution is cloudy or has precipitated. 50 mg VIAL: PREPARATION OF THE SOLUTION FOR INFUSION IN ADULTS DOSE* Volume of reconstituted CANCIDAS for transfer to intravenous bag or bottle Standard preparation (reconstituted CANCIDAS added to 250 ml) final concentration Reduced volume infusion (reconstituted CANCIDAS added to 100 ml) final concentration 50 mg 10 ml 0.20 mg/ml</h2><h2 id="50-mg-at-reduced-volume-10-ml">50 mg at reduced volume 10 ml</h2><h2 id="047-mgml-35-mg-for-moderate-hepatic-impairment-from-one-50-mg-vial-7-ml-014-mgml">0.47 mg/ml 35 mg for moderate hepatic impairment<br/>(from one 50 mg vial) 7 ml 0.14 mg/ml</h2><h2 id="35-mg-for-moderate-hepatic-impairment-from-one-50-mg-vial-at-reduced-volume-7-ml">35 mg for moderate hepatic impairment (from one 50 mg vial) at reduced volume 7 ml</h2><p>0.34 mg/ml</p><ul><li>10.5 ml should be used for reconstitution of all vials.
