Capegard® (Capecitabine) Capecitabine 500 mg Tablets — Oral Fluoropyrimidine Chemotherapy: A Sourcing Guide for Hospitals and Oncology Pharmacies
Capegard® is a brand of capecitabine tablets, an oral nucleoside metabolic inhibitor, marketed by Cipla. According to the US prescribing information for the reference product (Xeloda®), capecitabine is indicated for colorectal cancer (adjuvant treatment of Stage III colon cancer, perioperative treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer as part of chemoradiotherapy, and unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer) and for advanced or metastatic breast cancer, among other labelled uses. Indications for Capegard in India are defined by its approved pack insert and the Indian regulator. The decision to prescribe capecitabine, including patient selection, dose and monitoring, rests entirely with the treating physician. This page provides sourcing and procurement information for hospitals and pharmacies, not clinical or treatment guidance.

The Xeloda label summarises its Clinical Studies in colorectal and breast cancer in the Clinical Studies section of the prescribing information. Evidence is cited for information only and is not a recommendation for any patient; the approved prescribing information governs.
