How Capegard 500 (Capecitabine) Works?

Capecitabine is metabolized into 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) within the tumor tissue. 5-FU disrupts DNA synthesis in rapidly dividing cells, which leads to the death of cancer cells. By targeting tumor cells specifically, Capecitabine helps limit the growth and spread of the cancer.
