My mother had breast cancer and it is spread to liver. Chemotherapy is going on with the drug MITOTAX 130 mg for 12 weeks now. And doctor said we need to continue for 6 more weeks. But my mother became very week and can we hold on for some time and I read that the mitotax injection is given once in 3 weeks is that true? And is it because of which my mother became week? Please help me. Thank you.

Dear lybrate-user, From the reports I understand that she has stage 4 Cancer. In such situation chemotherapy is not very useful. The drug needs to be changed to oral Chemotherapy. That will not make her weak and is easy to handle. Consult your Doctor.
