Zimzam? any idea?

[miraclethree]

Does the name Zimzam, or Zamzim (spelling only phonetic) ring a bell with anyone. My mom's onc is putting her on it some time in the near future, but I can't find any information about it. Thanks so much

Could it be called Zevalin? Here's a link:

I don't believe that's it, but thank you for the reply. My mother's onc is from India. He's very good, but I can't always understand what he's saying. During her last appointment, he listed the drugs she would be receiving and I thought I heard all the names correctly, but I can't find this one. I'll ask again on Monday.

Thank you so much

Perhaps Zometa for bone strengthening?

Hugs,
Nicola

Okay, miraclethree, here's one more WAG... could it be Gemzar?

Hello AA,
Yes! I believe Gemzar is the drug my mom's onc mentioned. I will still ask on Monday, but this drug makes sense with her diagnosis- stage IV bc her2+ with mets to lungs.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who looked, wondered and suggested possibilities. I'm sorry we all had to meet under these circumstances, but I'm thankful for this site.

With Love
