Speaker: Chanchal Cabrera, FNIMH, RH (AHG) Note: These three herbs should only be used by medical professionals with knowledge of their use and toxicity. These botanicals have both value and utility when combined with conventional chemotherapy and sometimes even up-regulating it, for example, artemisinin and conventional chemo for brain cancer. We will discuss strategic thinking with herbs in cancer care and prioritizing treatment. Included in the discussion:
- pharmacology and how the herbs work, active pathways and clinical uses
- pharmacokinetics and how the herbs get absorbed, distributed, and eliminated
- herb-drug interactions, safety, dosing, contra-indications
