Things to know about drugs for advanced liver cancer

Liver cancer is a malignant tumor disease that occurs in the liver. Liver cancer has its own characteristics. The early symptoms are not obvious. Many patients are in the late stage when they are discovered. Local treatment in the late stage is not effective, and drug treatment is a common method for many patients in the late stage. Let’s take a look at the drug treatment for late-stage liver cancer.

Drugs for the treatment of liver cancer can generally be divided into Western medicine and Chinese medicine. Western medicine treatment is common chemotherapy drugs. Chemotherapy is a common treatment method for cancer, but in clinical practice, chemotherapy is not effective in treating liver cancer. Liver cancer is not sensitive to chemotherapy, and chemotherapy has great side effects. Cancer cells are often killed and immunity is almost zero. Therefore, chemotherapy should be used with caution for patients with advanced liver cancer.
As a traditional treatment method in my country, TCM emphasizes dialectical treatment and symptomatic treatment in the treatment of liver cancer. TCM is mild in nature and can be tolerated by patients. It has a good effect in inhibiting tumors and improves the patient's immune function. The patient's own ability to resist tumors can be well restored and the liver function can be protected to the maximum extent. The TCM used in clinical practice mainly includes triple balance therapy, etc., which improves the patient's immunity and quality of life on the basis of treating the primary cancer and prolongs the patient's survival.
