So can patients with cervical cancer drink Chinese herbal medicine for a long time?

Drugs for treating cervical cancer can be divided into chemotherapy drugs and traditional Chinese medicine. Drug therapy is mostly used for the treatment of advanced cervical cancer.
1. Chemotherapy drugs for cervical cancer Chemotherapy is an important treatment for advanced cervical cancer. Commonly used chemotherapy drugs for cervical cancer include cisplatin, carboplatin, cyclophosphamide, mitomycin, etc. These drugs have their own advantages and disadvantages, and it is difficult to evaluate which drug is the best drug for cervical cancer. For example, cisplatin has the advantages of a broad anti-cancer spectrum and strong effects, but it is easy to cause kidney toxicity. Carboplatin has a similar mechanism of action to cisplatin, but its kidney toxicity, gastrointestinal reactions, ototoxicity and neurotoxicity are lighter than cisplatin, while its bone marrow toxicity is heavier than cisplatin.
2. Traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of cervical cancer The advantage of traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of cervical cancer is that it has a certain inhibitory effect on tumors, has no side effects, can improve human immunity, reduce the toxicity of chemotherapy drugs, improve the quality of life of patients, and prolong survival time. For example, Jianpi Yishen Granules have a good clinical reputation. At present, there are many types of traditional Chinese medicines for the treatment of cervical cancer, and the quality varies. When choosing a drug suitable for the patient, you should be optimistic about the indications of the drug and learn more about the clinical application of the drug. When choosing a drug to treat cervical cancer, don't blindly ask which drug is the best.
