Re: Weekly Or Once Every 3 Weeks---herceptin
 
Thought I'd weigh in - I'm American but live in Sardegna Italy - and here they give it every 3 weeks. No option of once a week. Even when I had chemo (every week) they only did the Herceptin every 21 days. They started the chemo and Herceptin the same day.

I'm now 5 months into a year schedule of every 21 days.

I receive Herceptin every week due to a slight drop in Muga scan. My Onc said he would like to keep me on weekly schedule for side effect reasons, and to not triple dose me at one sitting...Who knows! Whats right and whats not. So confusing
PS..On week 20

I recommend the weekly regimend.
