Re: How do you boost your platelets on Kadcyla

Dear yanyan,

Snake venom decreases platelets but I assume you are taking a homeopathic remedy. Taking a homeopathic snake venom pill is the same as taking a sugar pill, as there is no snake venom left after the homeopathic dilution. Save your money.

I assume you are eating a good nutritious diet already.

The most likely thing that will increase your platelets is giving your body that extra bit of time to recover from the last dose as your doctor has suggested.

Good luck with this.
