Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Afatinib is primarily used to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other cancers linked to abnormal epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. It may also be prescribed for metastatic squamous NSCLC after platinum-based chemotherapy. Patients often ask, 'what is Afatinib used for' to understand its role in cancer therapy.

Side Effects

  • Afatinib works by slowing or stopping the growth of cancer cells that rely on EGFR signals. Many patients experience improved disease control over time, though individual responses vary. Common effects include digestive changes and skin reactions, which should be monitored by a medical professional.
