Myezom 2mg Injection contains Bortezomib, which is a proteasome inhibitor used in the treatment of certain types of cancers, most commonly multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma. Bortezomib acts by preventing the breakdown of proteins by cell structures called proteasomes, which causes a buildup of proteins in cancer cells and ultimately results in their death.
