Xelodis-DT is an oral chemotherapy medication that contains Capecitabine in a dispersible tablet form. It is specifically designed to treat various types of cancers, including:

This dispersible formulation provides ease of administration for patients who have difficulty swallowing traditional tablets, ensuring better adherence to treatment plans.
How Does Xelodis-DT Work?
