I watch my dosages as I double check my name and the drug. I always want to make sure everything is correct. Then I hope the pharmacist was paying attention as she mixed the chemicals....


At 170 lbs and 5 feet 5 inches I receive(d)


Taxotere 138 mg in one hour
Carboplatin 734 mg in 30 minutes
Herceptin 156 mg in 30 minutes


In two weeks I will begin the three week cycle of Herceptin. The RN said the dosage will be just under 468 mg's if I understood her correctly.


My dosages seems a bit higher in comparison.
