taxotere vs taxol
what is the difference in these 2 drugs? I start a new regime tomorrow. I will get herceptin and taxotere. I have seen several people talk about taxol but not much about the taxotere. Any one else have this and have any idea why this recipe is used? I just completed 4 treatments of adrimyicin and cytoxen. I am dose dense and get neulasta shot after each treatment.
i also got to see the movie Living Proof last night. it was awesome. I so appreciate Dr. Slamon's dedication and his familie's sacrifices for his research.
