Symptoms and signs in lung cancer patients may be caused by invasion of local primary lesions, compression of adjacent thoracic structures, distant metastasis, or para-cancer syndrome. Common symptoms include severe cough, wheezing, and dyspnea. So how should small cell lung cancer be treated with medication?
Postoperative chemotherapy can kill cancer cells in the body, improve the quality of life after surgery, and prolong survival. The side effects of chemotherapy are large, the most obvious of which are gastrointestinal reactions, such as hair loss and decreased white blood cells. Chemotherapy will inhibit the hematopoietic function of the bone marrow, and the white blood cells will drop sharply. The simple level of white blood cell function is not too large. The Chinese medicine treatment method also reduces the side effects of chemotherapy. Chinese medicine can improve and strengthen the physical fitness, support, and replenish qi and blood, and can improve the body's immunity. The full use of chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can reduce the side effects of chemotherapy drugs, improve the body's immune ability, and make patients resistant to treatment, while having therapeutic effects and efficacy.
There are currently two standard chemotherapy regimens for small cell lung cancer: platinum regimen is the most commonly used chemotherapy regimen, but as the chemotherapy time increases, its treatment toxicity gradually increases. Therefore, the choice of chemotherapy drugs and chemotherapy time should be based on tumor remission, symptom relief and treatment-related toxicity.
In view of the toxic side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy on the human body, the treatment of advanced lung cancer can be combined with traditional Chinese medicine, such as ginsenoside Rh2 (mensurin), to enhance the efficacy and reduce toxicity. Conservative treatment can be used for patients with advanced lung cancer with a wide range of metastases, weak physical functions, and difficulty in tolerant chemotherapy. Although the short-term effect is not as obvious as chemotherapy, the long-term effect is good and has obvious effects in improving the quality of life and prolonging survival.
The medication methods for small cell lung cancer are: 1. Standard treatment: VP-16 plus cisplatin treatment. VP-16 can be given intravenously or orally. The whole cycle of chemotherapy takes 10 days for oral administration and 1-2 days for intravenous infusion. One cycle is 21 days; 2. Alternative: CPT-11 plus cisplatin treatment. If corresponding chemotherapy reactions occur during the rest period of chemotherapy, you should go to the hospital in time to check blood routine and liver function. If corresponding reactions occur, you need to go to a specialist hospital for corresponding treatment.
