Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Nintedanib is used in fibrotic lung disorders and certain oncologic settings, targeting disease pathways that drive fibrosis and tumor growth.
  • Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: slows disease progression and reduces decline in lung function.
  • Systemic sclerosis‑associated interstitial lung disease: helps preserve lung capacity and delay worsening.
  • Non‑small cell lung cancer: used in combination therapy to inhibit tumor growth.

How It Works

  • Nintedanib inhibits multiple receptor tyrosine kinases—including vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFR), fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR), and platelet‑derived growth factor receptors (PDGFR). By blocking these pathways, it reduces fibroblast proliferation, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix deposition, thereby attenuating fibrotic remodeling and tumor‑driven neovascularization.

Side Effects

Nintedanib may cause a range of adverse reactions, which are categorized by frequency and severity.

Common Side Effects

  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Abdominal pain
  • Decreased appetite
  • Elevated liver enzymes (ALT/AST)
  • Headache

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Severe liver injury (hepatotoxicity)
  • Arterial thromboembolic events (e.g., myocardial infarction, stroke)
  • Major bleeding episodes

Precautions & Warnings

  • Before initiating therapy, clinicians should assess baseline organ function and risk factors.
  • Monitor liver function: obtain baseline and periodic hepatic enzyme tests.
  • Assess cardiovascular risk: evaluate for history of arterial thromboembolism.
  • Avoid concomitant strong CYP3A4 inhibitors: may increase nintedanib exposure.
  • Use caution in patients with renal impairment: adjust monitoring.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original pack, protect from moisture and light.

Avoid Interactions

Nintedanib can interact with several drug classes, requiring careful management.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, clarithromycin): may raise nintedanib levels.
  • Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased bleeding risk.
  • P‑glycoprotein inhibitors (e.g., verapamil): may increase exposure.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Moderate CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampin): may reduce efficacy.
  • Antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin): monitor for bleeding.
  • Diuretics: watch for dehydration and renal function changes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Nintedanib Teva is prescribed for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, systemic sclerosis‑associated interstitial lung disease, and for use in combination regimens for non‑small cell lung cancer. In each case the drug targets pathways that drive fibrosis or tumor growth, helping to slow disease progression.

Nintedanib blocks several receptor tyrosine kinases—VEGFR, FGFR, and PDGFR. Inhibition of these receptors reduces fibroblast activation, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix production, which together limit fibrotic tissue formation and impede tumor‑related blood vessel development.

The specific dose and dosing schedule are determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s indication, weight, renal and hepatic function, and concomitant medications. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and not adjust the dose on their own.

Safety data for Nintedanib in pregnancy and lactation are limited. The drug is generally not recommended for pregnant or nursing women unless the potential benefit justifies the potential risk. Women of child‑bearing potential should use effective contraception during treatment.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details (including any cold‑chain requirements) and the necessary import documentation.

The main alternative for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is pirfenidone, which has a different mechanism (inhibits TGF‑β signaling). Nintedanib targets multiple tyrosine kinases, offering broader inhibition of fibrotic pathways. Choice of therapy depends on patient tolerance, comorbidities, drug‑interaction profile, and physician judgment.

Store Nintedanib Teva at ambient temperature, below 25 °C (77 °F). Keep the tablets in the original container, protect them from moisture, heat and direct sunlight to maintain stability.

Nintedanib Teva is taken orally, usually with food to reduce gastrointestinal discomfort. The tablets should be swallowed whole with a full glass of water and not crushed or chewed.

The most serious adverse events include severe liver injury, arterial thromboembolic events such as myocardial infarction or stroke, and major bleeding. Patients should be monitored regularly for hepatic function, cardiovascular health, and signs of bleeding.

Nintedanib is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to the drug, those with active severe hepatic impairment, and individuals with a recent history of arterial thromboembolic events. Caution is also advised for patients with significant renal impairment or uncontrolled cardiovascular disease.
