This week Andy’s cancer is being treated with two drugs as follows:
- Flush – 30 minutes
- Drug 1 – 4 hours
- Hydration – 12 hour bag
- Drug 2 – 4 hour bag
- Hydration – 12 hour bag
- Drug 1 – 4 hours
- Hydration – 12 hour bag
- Drug 2 – 4 hour bag
- Hydration – 12 hour bag
Andy has asked the Professor if the 12 hour bags can be compressed into 8 hour periods, which overall saves 12 hours in the whole process.
The Prof has basically said that if Andy is clearing the drugs adequately he’ll consider it. During the previous cycle he allowed the final bag to be done this way.
The first hydration will have to remain at 12 hours as they use this for assessment.
