Colon cancer
My father was diagnosed with polyp in hepatic flexure.
Colon Surgery was done and now the doc recommended to take capegaurd 500 to avoid any further symptoms.
What to do?
I am worried for his health.
Possibly your dad is diagnosed with stage II Colon cancer and hence he was prescribed Capegard. Capegard is capecitabine which is an oral chemotherapy drug used in multiple cancers including colon cancer.
