Medicines used to treat cancer are very strong and can have many side effects. Before receiving this medicine, make sure you understand all the risks and benefits. It is important for you to work closely with your doctor during your treatment.
A doctor or other trained health professional will give you this medicine. It is given through a needle placed into one of your veins. It must be given slowly, so the needle should remain in place for at least 30 to 90 minutes.
Avoid using other cancer medicines (eg, anthracyclines) for up to 7 months after stopping treatment with trastuzumab-dttb injection. If you are receiving an anthracycline medicine, your doctor may need to check for heart problems regularly.
