Uterine Cancer Drugs

Using drugs to treat cancer is also known as chemotherapy. Often called "anticancer" drugs, chemotherapy drugs destroy uterine cancer cells by stunting their ability to grow and reproduce. Chemotherapy drugs are usually given intravenously, by injection or by mouth.

More than one drug will probably be used for your treatment. This is called combination chemotherapy. The drugs work together to kill more cancer cells.

Treatment can be once a day, once a week, or even once a month. It depends on the type of cancer you have and the chemo you are taking. How long you get chemo also depends on how your body responds to the drugs.

Some examples of drugs you may recieve:

Progestin theraphy:

Medroxyprogesterone (Provera).

Hydroxyprogesterone (Delalutin)

Chemotheraphy (Anti cancer drugs):

Cisplatin

Carboplatin

Doxorubicin

Topotecan

Anti nauseant and vomiting:

Odansetron

Dolasetron

promethazine

prochlorperazine

You might be aware that there are certain side effects that come with chemotheraphy. Some of the common side effects are:

  • hair loss
  • fatigue (tiredness)
  • increased chance of bruising and bleeding
  • anemia (low red blood cell count)
  • nausea and vomiting
  • infection

Your doctor may prescribe drugs to counter these side effects. That is why it is normal for a patient undergoing chemotherapy to be on a few drugs at a time.

I am bold enough among many others to state that there is now a potent cure to this sickness but many are unaware of it. I discovered that I was infected with the virus 3 months ago, after a medical check-up. My doctor told me and I was shocked, confused and felt like my world has crumbled. I was dying slowly due to the announcement of my medical practitioner but he assured me that I could leave a normal life if I took my medications (as there was no medically known cure to Herpes). I went from churches to churches but soon found that my case needed urgent attention as I was growing lean due to fear of dying anytime soon. In a bid to look for a lasting solution to my predicament, I sought for solutions from the herbal world. I went online and searched for every powerful trado-medical practitioner that I could severe, cos I heard that the African Herbs had a cure to the Herpes syndrome.
