The doctor recommended me to take the below medicine.
a) Avastin - To stop the blood vessel to continue supply food to the cancer cell
b) Gemjar and Cisplatin - To kill the cancer cell
The cost for the above medicine are very expensive. It cost about RM 12,000 per cycle.
Gemzar and Cisplatin is not really expensive, the one cost a bomb is Avastin .
ReplyDeleteThe price for all the new drugs is crazy , i.e. Tarceva ; Iressa ; Alimta ...
Alimta cost anytime near to Rm 10k per cycle and Tarceva cost patient more than Rm 10k per month.
Treatment for cancer with latest drug is too , too expensive . Wish our Government can do something .
