A Review of Testicular Cancer
U.S. Pharmacist, 08/21/09
Radhakrishnan L – As testicular cancer is highly curable in both early and advanced stages, the prevention and management of acute and long–term toxicities are extremely important. Pharmacists play a valuable role in the management of these toxicities. There are numerous opportunities for intervention. Patients should be counseled as to the importance of maintaining adequate hydration when receiving platinum–based therapies to prevent renal toxicity. A detailed medication history should be obtained prior to therapy initiation to determine the necessity of discontinuing any drugs that may potentiate the development of nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity.
