Tykerb..FDA approval with XEloda only?
Just read on another board that the only way the FDA approved the use of Tykerb was with Xeloda..is this true? I know that's the way the trial were run. My oncologist just wrote me a prescription for Tykerb today to use with the Herceptin I am on. I finally decided that I wanted to do everything to stay in remission and not wait for it to return. He didn't seem to think there would be any problem with me getting it. What's the story on the FDA approval thing..sherryg683
