Re: Suggestions, anyone?

Elaine the tyrosine kinase inhibitors were developed specifically to be oral drugs

Generally the targeted bc drugs that are IV are monoclonal antibodies

It is amazing that they haven't made more IV forms of drugs available for those not eating. Until about a year ago there was no IV tylenol approved in the US, so hospitalized patients who were not eating who really didn't have much pain had to have morphine or something similar. The company that now makes IV tyelonol says it wants to make more drugs available in IV form, but that may be hard due to drug patent system
