General information
Class/mechanism: Topoisomerase II inhibitor. Teniposide inhibits type II topoisomerase, which results in single and double-stranded DNA breaks and DNA-protein crosslinks. It is cell-cycle specific, acting in late S or early G2, preventing cells from entering mitosis. It is dissolved in Cremophor EL (polyoxyethylated castor oil), which may cause hypersensitivity infusion reactions.[1][2]
Route: IV
Extravasation: irritant

Instead, for the most current information, please refer to your preferred pharmacopeias such as Micromedex, Lexicomp, UpToDate (courtesy of Lexicomp), or the prescribing information.[1]
