medication help breast cancer treatment - stumped


Posted: Nov 04, 2009

patient with lumpectomy then double mastectomy. Medication s/l ven-mo-fax-ine or fem-mo-fax-ine HCL 25 mg q.i.d. times several months. She will be on this for 5 years total. Cannot find or figure. Googled "HCL 25 mg breast cancer" but didn't find anything too close.

Tamoxifen?? nm - Babs

No, not tamoxifen. I think she is actually saying vaccine at the end. I found an article about breast cancer vaccines for postcancer patients but have not found a medication name. So, actually might be s/l "Venmo or Femo" vaccine HCL 25 mg. Well, it will be going to QA if I don't turn up with something. The q.i.d. kind of throws me for a vaccine though.

Try venlafaxine...sm - Babs
