Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Will Taxotere Help Elevated Bilirubin And Liver Enzymes?
my mother has stage iv breast cancer...right now she has elevated bilirubin and liver enzymes...her oncologist is suggesting trying Taxotere as the next treatment since Doxil failed after 3 treatments....what do you think of the Taxotere as the next step?
Taxotere doesn't help with elevated liver enzymes instead it affects liver function enzymes and causes its derangements. I suppose you have told her oncologist about her liver condition, if not you should!
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Fahum Akhter, General & Family Physician
