Treatment Based on Bad Science

Or Where Is The Science?

 

Fall-into-hole

 

Patients know nothing about chemo-drugs.

But some oncologists asked patients to choose their own bullets or drugs to use.

Their choice is made based on affordability and convenience.

Their idea… is to see whether two doses of this poison is better than three doses of that poison ~ Glen Warner, oncologist. 

State-of-the-art chemotherapy … was nothing more than different combinations of the same toxic drugs given in different schedules … It continues to ...

Is There A Cure For Cancer?

 

This is a tricky question with no simple Yes or No answer.

We can’t really talk about a cure for cancer in the same way that we mend and cure a broken leg.

Example: If a breast cancer is detected early, surgery may be able to remove all the cancerous growth. The patient is well and considers herself cured.

Unfortunately, this patient has a high risk of developing cancer again some years later.

The cancer may recur at the original tumour site or may ...

Obscene Drug Markups

A significant percentage of drugs sold in the United State contain active ingredients made in other countries. Did you ever wonder how much it costs a drug company for the active ingredient in prescription medications? Some people think it must cost a lot, since many drugs sell for more than $2.00 per tablet.

For a tablet that cost $2.00 the profit is already obscene. What word can you use to describe the markup of a tablet that cost RM ...

Oral Targeted Therapies for Cancer

Iressa, Tarceva, Erbitux, Avastin, Herceptin ….

 

The Dream drugs or Smart Bombs are currently designed to target the cancer cells and block or slow the growth of certain types of cancer.

The common side effects of molecular targeted therapy may include diarrhea, fever, loss of appetite, nausea, rash, and weakness.
