1,3-dmba Overview

1,3-DMBA, also known as 1,3-dimethylbutylamine, is a chemical present in certain supplements advertised for enhancing athletic performance and aiding in weight loss. While some products claim to derive 1,3-DMBA from pouchong tea or Coreopsis tinctoria, the levels found in these supplements far exceed natural quantities, suggesting synthetic production. Consequently, the US FDA has classified supplements containing 1,3-DMBA as adulterated, and the World Anti-Doping Agency prohibits their use. When taken orally, 1,3-DMBA is considered potentially unsafe due to its stimulant and vasoconstrictive properties, similar to those of 1,3-DMAA, a synthetic stimulant associated with severe side effects such as lactic acidosis, myocardial infarction, stroke, and even death. As a result, it is strongly recommended to avoid oral consumption of 1,3-DMBA.

Atezolizumab Overview

  • Atezolizumab injection is used alone or with other chemotherapy medications to treat certain types of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in adults. Atezolizumab injection is also used in combination with other chemotherapy medications to treat certain types of small cell lung cancer (SCLC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and melanoma (a type of skin cancer) in adults. Atezolizumab is also used alone to treat certain types of alveolar soft tissue sarcomas (cancer that forms in muscles, fat, or nerves) in adults and children 2 years of age or older. Atezolizumab injection is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It works by blocking the action of a certain protein in cancer cells. This helps the person's immune system to fight against the cancer cells, and helps to slow tumor growth.

  • Your doctor will review your specific type of cancer and past treatment history and other available treatments to determine if atezolizumab injection is right for you.
