Bortezomib injection is used to treat multiple myeloma (blood plasma cell cancer) in patients with or without a prior history of treatment, and mantle cell lymphoma.

Bortezomib is an antineoplastic agent (cancer medicine). It interferes with the growth of cancer cells, which are eventually destroyed by the body. Since the growth of normal body cells may also be affected by bortezomib, other effects will also occur. Some of these may be serious and must be reported to your doctor. Other effects, such as a skin rash, may not be serious but may cause concern. Some effects may not occur until months or years after the medicine is used.

Bortezomib is to be given only by or under the supervision of your doctor.
