can someone please explain the difference between having her weekly vs every third week? Is there something i'm missing is one schedule more effective, easier on the heart? When they say herceptin for a year do they mean weekly then change to every 3 weeks or is there a standard amount that is given regardless of the schedule in the one year period.
Hope i'm expressing my self accurately. thanks
