Doses - Erbitux v Avastin   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1045 of 1454 |
Hi,

I am trying to find out from people who are getting Erbitux or Avastin, what
is the dose they are taking?

I cannot find info on Avastin but, for example from what I have roughly
worked out it MAY work out at 400mg/per sq meter for 1 week then to
200mg/sqm for following doses of ERBITUX? Is this true? How many pills of
what mg is that?Is it 1 dose a day say 2x 200mg pills in the afternoon?

This compares to Xeloda/Capcebetine Dose level 1250mg/m2 (twice daily)
Xeloda dose calculation according to body surface area,
For example Surface Area of 1.53 gives a Dose of 2000mg = 5 pills of 500mg
Xeloda am and pm

Thanks

Ian
