What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

Votrient Overview
Pazopanib is used to treat certain types of cancer (kidney, soft tissue sarcoma). Pazopanib belongs to a class of drugs known as tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It works by decreasing the blood supply to the cancer tumor to slow tumor growth. Votrient should not be used by children, especially those younger than 2 years of age, because of the risk of serious side effects.
Votrient Warnings
Pazopanib can rarely cause very serious (possibly fatal) liver disease. Your doctor will order blood tests to check your liver before you start and while you are taking pazopanib. During the first 2 months of treatment, liver tests will be done frequently, usually every 2 weeks. After 2 months, liver testing will be less frequent. Tell your doctor right away if you develop symptoms of liver disease such as nausea/vomiting that doesn't stop, dark urine, yellow eyes/skin, stomach/abdominal pain. Your doctor may need to change your dosage or discontinue the drug.

Medications that reduce/block stomach acid (such as antacids, H2 blockers such as famotidine/ranitidine, proton pump inhibitors-PPIs such as omeprazole/lansoprazole) may reduce the absorption of pazopanib, making it work less well. Do not take H2 blockers or PPIs while using Votrient. If you are taking antacids, ask your pharmacist about how to best take them, such as taking antacids at least several hours apart from when you take pazopanib.

To help you remember, take it at the same time each day. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully.
