黑升麻和他莫昔芬一起治療乳腺癌

In the matter of understanding the effectiveness and safety of using herbal therapies together with other drugs, much is still unknown.就了解將草藥療法與其他藥物一起使用的有效性和安全性而言,很多事情仍然未知。 So now, a researcher from University of Missouri will study how black cohosh - an herbal supplement often used to relieve hot flashes in menopausal women - interacts with tamoxifen, a common drug used to treat breast cancer.因此,現在,密蘇里大學的一位研究人員將研究黑升麻(一種常用於緩解更年期女性潮熱的草藥補品)與他莫昔芬(一種用於治療乳腺癌的常用藥物)之間的相互作用。
Women who have aged and reached menopause may suffer increased risk of developing breast cancer.年齡更大,更年期的婦女患乳腺癌的風險可能會增加。 Many of them who have, or are at risk, take tamoxifen for breast cancer.他們中的許多人已經或有風險服用他莫昔芬治療乳腺癌。 The drug prevents approximately 50 percent of breast cancers in women who have an increased risk of developing breast cancer.該藥物可預防罹患乳腺癌的風險增加的女性中約XNUMX%的乳腺癌。 However, when women take tamoxifen, they cannot take hormone replacement therapies to relieve menopausal symptoms.但是,當婦女服用他莫昔芬時,她們無法採取激素替代療法來緩解更年期症狀。 Their options are limited to taking antidepressants which can have complications, enduring uncomfortable menopausal symptoms, or trying the black cohosh.他們的選擇僅限於服用可能具有並發症,忍受更年期不適症狀的抗抑鬱藥或嘗試黑升麻。
