Chemo-Support and Radio-Support Protocols
Please note that the protocol that I advocate for these remedies is slightly different than what is indicated in the manual. While the manual says that Chemo-Support should be taken only during administration of chemotherapy, the remedy can be started about 2 weeks prior to the beginning of the chemotherapy course.
As for Radio-Support, while the manual says that it should be taken only during administration of radiotherapy, best results are obtained if it is taken also for about 6 weeks after the end of the radiotherapy course.
